After completing my undergraduate education at Istanbul Technical University in 2022, I continued the master’s degree in Molecular Biology-Genetics and Biotechnology at Istanbul Technical University and graduated in 2024. During my master’s degree, I took part in biosensor development projects at the TÜBİTAK Marmara Research Center as a research scholar; and during this process, I decided to get my PhD in the Medical Microbiology program, thanks to the pathogens I was working on detecting caught my attention. Now, I am planning to focus on elucidating host-pathogen interactions during my doctoral studies.
