Education:

• Specialization in Medicine (2004–2008): Firat University, School of Medicine, Department of Basic Medical Sciences.
• Undergraduate (1997–2003): Gaziantep University, School of Medicine.

Research focuses on oxidative stress mechanisms, neuroprotection, and toxin-induced organ damage. Key areas include:

• Antioxidant therapies (e.g., caffeic acid phenethyl ester, thymoquinone) for liver/kidney toxicity.
• Neuroanatomical imaging in disorders like neurofibromatosis.
• Ischemia/reperfusion injury interventions using pharmaceuticals (tadalafil, ceftriaxone) and natural compounds.

Publication trends (2011–2023) emphasize experimental toxicology, with recurring themes:

• Protective agents against industrial solvents (toluene, formaldehyde).
• Oxidative stress biomarkers in pregnancy, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
• Neuroimaging and neuroanatomy in clinical contexts.

Advising and Grants:

• Supervised 12 PhD/Master's theses (student names not specified).
• Led 12 research projects; served on TÜBİTAK scientific review panels.

Laboratory/Team Activities:

• Conducts histopathological and biochemical analyses in rodent models.
• Collaborates with multidisciplinary teams on neuroanatomy and clinical medicine studies.
