Prof. Dr. Kenan Aycan is a Professor of Anatomy at Ahi Evran University's Faculty of Medicine, Department of Basic Medical Sciences, where he has served since 2019. He also holds the position of Department Head since 2020. Previously, he worked at Erciyes University as a School Director from 2011-2016. His academic career spans over four decades with significant contributions to anatomical sciences.
Dr. Aycan earned his PhD in Basic Medical Sciences from Ege University's Faculty of Medicine (1983-1986) following his Bachelor's degree in Science from Ege University's Faculty of Science (1970-1975). He also holds a Certificate of Use of Experimental Animals from Erciyes University (2008).
His research focuses on anatomical morphology, vascular structures, and developmental processes. Dr. Aycan has pioneered anatomical techniques including the 'Aycan's method' for corrosion preparations. His work spans comparative anatomy across various species, morphometric analyses of anatomical structures, and investigations into teratogenic effects and protective agents. He has extensively studied the foramen magnum using golden ratio principles, vascular anatomy of reproductive organs in ruminants, and auditory ossicles in sheep.
Analysis of his recent publications (2021-2025) reveals consistent focus on anatomical methodology development, morphometric studies of key anatomical structures, vascular anatomy investigations, and research on developmental processes and teratology. His work often employs plastic injection and corrosion techniques, CT imaging, and comparative approaches across human and animal models.
Dr. Aycan has mentored numerous graduate students, serving as primary advisor for over 20 Master's and PhD theses covering diverse anatomical topics from vascular variations to developmental studies. His collaborative network includes researchers like Tufan Ulcay, Burcu Kamaşak, and others across Turkish institutions.
