Dr. Akbora's research centers on marine biodiversity and fisheries dynamics in the Eastern Mediterranean region. His work examines spatial utilization patterns in small-scale fisheries and ecological impacts of invasive species, particularly focusing on the Torquigener pufferfish. This research contributes to understanding sustainable resource management in changing marine environments through field studies and ecological modeling.

His recent scholarly output demonstrates consistent focus on Eastern Mediterranean marine systems, with two significant 2023 publications addressing fisheries behavior patterns and invasive species biology. These works appear in respected journals Fisheries Research and Aquatic Invasions, indicating active contribution to marine conservation science.

While no formal awards are documented in available records, Dr. Akbora collaborates with international researchers including Brendan J. Godley and Daniel Pauly. His work supports regional understanding of marine ecosystem changes and fisheries management challenges.
