ABOUT & CONTACT

I am an assistant professor in the Department of Physics at Boğaziçi University, Istanbul. My research interests lie in theoretical and mathematical physics, particularly supersymmetry, integrability and special functions.

I received my PhD in theoretical physics from Humboldt University of Berlin in 2016, under the supervision of Jan Plefka. I belong to Emil Akhmedov’s scientific school.

Alongside my research, I work with students, organize scientific meetings and take part in mathematics and physics education outside the university. I lead the Istanbul Integrability and Stringy Topics Initiative (iStringy).
