Prof. Dr. Cihan KAÇAR is a full-time Professor at Kafkas University's Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, specializing in Veterinary Obstetrics and Gynecology. He earned his doctorate from Ankara University (2002) and has held progressive academic roles since 1998, including Dean's Assistant and Department Head. His administrative duties include Faculty Board membership and leadership in academic committees.
Research Focus: KAÇAR's work centers on optimizing reproductive efficiency in livestock. Key areas include hormonal synchronization protocols, non-invasive pregnancy diagnostics (e.g., ultrasonography), endometritis management, and embryo transfer technologies. He investigates biomarkers like Anti-Müllerian Hormone and develops practical interventions such as thyme oil/DMSO therapy for uterine infections.
Publication Trends: His 15 most recent articles (2021–2025) emphasize translational applications: 80% focus on cattle/sheep reproduction, with innovations in ultrasonography, hormone assays, and minimally invasive tools. Recurring themes include fertility optimization during non-breeding seasons, peripartum monitoring, and cryopreservation techniques.
Grants & Advising: He led 48 projects, including TÜBİTAK-funded studies on bacteriophages for metritis and sex-sorted semen for embryo production. As primary advisor, he mentored 9+ graduate students in theses covering topics from progesterone synchronization to transmissible tumors in canines.
Training & Outreach: KAÇAR conducted workshops on reproductive ultrasonography (Azerbaijan, 2021) and frequently contributes to farmer education via media interviews on calf care and herd health.
