Danai Koutra (Greek: Δανάη Κούτρα) is an Assistant Professor of the Computer Science and Engineering Division of the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department of the University of Michigan[2] where she directs the Graph Mining and Exploration at Scale Lab.[3] Danai Koutra is also affiliated with the Michigan Institute for Data Science.
Professional history[edit]
Danai Koutra received her Ph.D. and M.S. in Computer Science from Carnegie Mellon University in 2015 and her diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens in 2010.[2] In 2019 Danai Koutra won the prestigious National Science Foundation CAREER Award[4] and an Amazon research award for "Adaptive Personalized Knowledge Graph Summarization", a project in collaboration with Davide Mottin.[5] Koutra received an ARO Young Investigator award and an Adobe Data Science Research Faculty Award in 2018.[6][2] In 2014 she was selected for the Berkeley EECS Rising Stars conference,[7] as well as the Heidelberg Laureate Forum, which she attended as a young researcher of the US delegation, sponsored by NSF.
Research work and academic service[edit]
Since 2018, Koutra leads the "Explore Graduate Studies in CSE" program [8] at the University of Michigan, which aims to broaden participation in computer science at the graduate level.
