Description
Dr. Spiliotis trained in paediatrics in the Children’s Hospital
National Medical Center in Washington, DC and in paediatric
endocrinology at the National Institute of Child Health and

Maryland. She is currently full professor in peadiatric
endocrinology at the University of Patras Department of
Medicine.
Her research work aims at:
1. Growth disorders
2. Adipocytes and childhood obesity
In her laboratory she was able to study the molecular dynamics of children with the growth hormone transduction defect. Her research team research into the aetiology of this molecular disorder and its paradoxically successful therapy with recombinant human growth hormone, since the defect is within the GH signalling pathway.
