Biography
I was born in Izmir and pursued a Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering at Ege University. Later, I earned a Master's degree in Chemical Engineering from the Izmir Institute of Technology where I additionally worked as a research assistant for two years. I also hold a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration and a Master's degree in Pharmacognosy.
In summer 2018, I moved to Munich to begin my PhD studies at the Technical University of Munich, focusing on the development of targeted drug delivery systems. My expertise led me to join the Ertürk Lab in February 2023, where I develop novel lipid nanoparticle formulations and targeted delivery strategies.
In my free time, I enjoy cooking, traveling, diving, and spending time with my two cats, Bulut and Midas.
