George Papadomichelakis graduated from the Agricultural University of Athens in 1996 (Integrated Master). He then obtained a PhD in Animal Nutrition at the Agricultural University of Athens (2001). He worked as a visiting researcher at the School of Veterinary Sciences (University of Bristol) for six months (2004) and as a postdoctoral researcher (with a scholarship) at the Agricultural University of Athens for two years (2004-2006). Appointed Lecturer (2006), Assistant Professor (2013), Associate Professor (2020) and Full Professor (2024) at the Laboratory of Nutritional Physiology & Feeding, Department of Animal Science in the specialization topic “Animal Nutrition with an emphasis on Herbivorous Monogastrics”.
