I am currently pursuing my M.Sc. in the Department of Bioengineering at Marmara University. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Bioengineering from Gebze Technical University in 2023. My undergraduate thesis, supported by TÜBİTAK within the scope of 2209-A, focused on the identification of novel non-competitive drug candidates targeting MRP4. As part of this project, I conducted coarse-grained molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and virtual screening studies. My research area of interest focuses on computational drug discovery and structural biology.
