Publications

Recent Work
• Dr. Vogiatzis has been involved in the European H2020 BigMedilytic (https://www.bigmedilytics.eu/). The project aimed to use big data for health analytics while he is coordinating the lung cancer pilot. The focus of the work was on the extraction of patterns from biomedical articles.
• He is currently involved in the European Project ERANET P4-Lucat (https://p4-lucat.eu /), which aims to discover new treatments for lung-cancer based on the analysis of open biomedical article and, in particular, on the discovery of evidence for new treatments.
