Coming from a family of medical professionals, science was ingrained in me from an early age. I was raised in Istanbul where I had the opportunity of higher education at Sabanci University. I was drawn to materials science for its potential to tackle global challenges, and the intersection of materials science and healthcare innovation is where my academic interests converge. I recently completed my master's degree at EPFL and have since been engaged in interdisciplinary work.Embarking on the next chapter of my journey, I'm honoured to be joining the Gates Cambridge community. I will pursue a Ph.D. at the Cambridge Centre for Medical Materials, working on tissue engineering scaffolds for regenerative medicine.
