Christos specialises in computer games technology and development, and how games can be used in
learning. As a result he has twice received European Commission funding for collaborative projects under
the Lifelong Learning Programme.

He has written on games development, particularly iOS game development for beginners in Epic Games’
Unreal Development Kit – an introduction to one of the most accessible and popular development tools.
He has spoken to BBC Radio Shropshire, Edge and Develop magazines about the games development
industry.

Christos leads the university’s contribution to the Assistive and Accessible Technology Policy Lab.
