Vassilis Kalantonis was born in Koroni, Greece. In 1998 he received his Degree in Mathematics from the Department of Mathematics, University of Patras, Greece, and in 2001 his M.Sc. from the interdepartmental Graduate Program “Mathematics of Computers and Decision Making” of the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Computer Engineering and Informatics, University of Patras. In 2004 he received his Ph.D. from the Department of Engineering Sciences of the University of Patras.

In 2005 he was appointed Lecturer of the Department of Engineering Sciences, University of Patras where in 2011 he was promoted to Assistant Professor. In 2013 he joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Patras as an Assistant Professor. In 2020 he was promoted to Associate Professor, and since 2025 he has been serving as Full Professor.

As a faculty member of the University of Patras, he has taught courses of Applied Mathematics, Numerical Analysis and Programming across various Departments of the School of Engineering. He has supervised one doctoral dissertation entitled “Mathematical Modeling and Study of the Electric and Magnetic Activity of the Functional Brain” and is currently supervising another dissertation entitled “Numerical-Analytical Investigation and Resource Optimization for Space Mission Design Involving Problems in Mechanics of Particles and Systems”.

He has published 38 scientific papers in international peer-reviewed journals, 6 papers in refereed edited volumes as well as 7 papers in international conference proceedings. His published work has received over 500 citations and is focused in the fields of Celestial Mechanics, Nonlinear Dynamical Systems in Molecular Physics, Continuous and Discrete Dynamical Systems in Economy, Stability and Bifurcation Theory, Numerical Solution of Nonlinear Algebraic Systems, Electric and Magnetic Activity of the Brain. He was a scientific coordinator of a “K. Karatheodory” research program of the University of Patras (2007-2010) and he is serving as a reviewer in 35 international scientific journals.
