Honouring the memory of Aris Terzis

DATE:29-09-2025

Honouring the memory of Dr. Aris Terzis (1941–2025) who was the Director of the Crystallography Laboratory at the former Institute of Materials Science, (now Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology) at  NCSR “Demokritos”,  serving from 1985 until his retirement in 2008. Under his leadership, the Crystallography Laboratory became a national center for collaboration, working closely with Inorganic Chemistry Departments across Greek universities. These efforts resulted in hundreds of crystal structures being solved and dozens of Ph.D. theses being supported. By opening the X-ray Laboratory to the broader Greek chemistry community, he significantly advanced research in this field, helping the community earn international recognition. In recognition of his impact, Polyhedron published a special issue honoring his contribution to the development of inorganic chemistry in Greece, Polyhedron, Volume 28, Issue 15,:  https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/polyhedron/vol/28/issue/15.
