Funda Bulut Arikan

Funda Bulut Arikan serves as a Lecturer in the Department of Physiology within the Faculty of Medicine at Kırıkkale University. Her academic role integrates teaching with extensive research in physiological mechanisms, particularly focusing on endocrine and metabolic systems.

Her research spans endocrinology, metabolism, neuroscience, and public health genetics. Key investigations include hormonal interactions during menopause and obesity, genetic polymorphisms in metabolic disorders, and epidemiological studies on consanguineous marriages. She employs diverse methodologies from molecular analysis to clinical cross-sectional studies.

Recent publications reveal strong interdisciplinary trends combining machine learning diagnostics for neurological conditions, genetic association studies in autoimmune comorbidities, and population-based investigations into metabolic health. Her work consistently bridges basic physiological research with clinical applications, particularly in the Kırıkkale region of Turkey.
