Caner Süsal

Caner Süsal serves as a Visiting Professor within the Department of Medical Biology at Koc University's School of Basic Medical Sciences in Istanbul, Turkey, where he contributes specialized expertise in immunological research critical to organ transplantation medicine.

Educational Background:

• Bachelor's Degree, Heidelberg University (1986)
• Residency, Heidelberg University (1988)

Research Focus: Dr. Süsal's work centers on advancing transplantation outcomes through histocompatibility testing at molecular levels, with emphasis on HLA/non-HLA antigen-antibody interactions. His investigations include epitope-level matching of donor-recipient pairs, biomarker identification for rejection prediction, and developing tolerance-induction strategies to prevent allograft rejection. This research bridges laboratory science with clinical applications in transplant immunology.
