• Education
  • B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, METU (1996)
  • M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, METU (1999)
  • Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, METU (2008)

Research Interests center on swarm robotics, mechatronics, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). His work explores self-organization in robotic swarms, bio-inspired control mechanisms, and adaptive systems for complex environments. Key themes include:

• Swarm intelligence for collective motion and task specialization
• Design and control of aerial and legged robots
• Applications in environmental monitoring, manufacturing, and biological interaction

Publication Trends highlight his leadership in swarm robotics, with recent works addressing predictive flocking algorithms, biohybrid platforms, and exoskeleton-assisted motor learning. His studies often integrate hardware design with computational models.

Advising and Grants information is unavailable in the provided texts, though his active research role since 2008 suggests significant contributions to graduate training and funded projects in robotics.
