Assoc. Prof. Dr. Gonca İnanç serves as Associate Professor and Vice Dean at Near East University, where she also holds a leadership position on the Board of Directors of the Brain and Consciousness Research Center. Her career bridges academic administration and specialized neuroscience research.
Her educational foundation includes:
- Bachelor of Science in Physics, Celal Bayar University Faculty of Arts and Sciences (2008)
- Master of Science in Physics Education, Celal Bayar University Institute of Science (2009)
- Master of Science in Biophysics, Dokuz Eylül University Institute of Health Sciences (2012)
- Doctor of Philosophy in Biophysics, Dokuz Eylül University Institute of Health Sciences (2019)
Dr. İnanç's research synthesizes electrophysiology with consciousness studies, focusing on sleep architecture, neural dynamics during arousal states, and somatosensory processing. Her work demonstrates strong translational potential through clinical sleep medicine applications and participation in international forums like the Turkish-Japanese Sleep Forums. The interdisciplinary nature of her research connects physics-based signal analysis with neurological and psychological phenomena.
She actively secures research funding through TÜBİTAK and BAP projects, enabling comprehensive national studies in sleep medicine. Her leadership extends to organizing major academic events including the National Sleep Medicine Congress and International Student Congress workshops, fostering collaborative environments for emerging researchers.
The Brain and Consciousness Research Center under her board leadership provides specialized infrastructure for sleep studies and neural monitoring, supporting both fundamental research on brain states and clinical applications in sleep disorders. This environment facilitates interdisciplinary collaboration across physics, neuroscience, and clinical medicine.
