MSc Student in Medical Microbiology Department, Mycology Unit, Koç University

BSc in Bioengineering, Marmara University (2014-2019)

Research Topics: Medical Mycology, fungal infection, antifungal resistance, immunology

I am interested in molecular mycology and immunology with my current focus on neutrophil activation against human fungal pathogen Candida albicans and antifungal resistance, and genetic profile of clinical Candida parapsilosis isolates. Besides, I work on nanotechnological treatment options against dermatophytes and meta-analysis of Sars-CoV-2 cytokine release.
