Charalampos (Babis) Rallis completed his PhD studies on Developmental Biology and Genetics at the National Institute for Medical Research (London, UK) under the supervision of Prof Malcolm Logan working on Vertebrate Limb Development and associated congenital syndromes.

Babis utilizes Synthetic and Systems Biology approaches as well as Genetic and Pharmacological interventions to study gene and protein networks that affect cellular and organismal growth, stress and lifespan.

He runs a number of interdisciplinary projects from revealing the genetic basis of drug resistance to identifying pro-ageing and anti-ageing genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors. His research outputs impact on the field of nutrition, growth regulation and cancer, bioprocessing and ageing.
