I received my B.Sc and M.Sc in Molecular Biology and Genetics from Istanbul Technical University. Currently, I am PhD. Candidate at Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Department at Acıbadem University. Working with Prof. Dr. Eda Tahir Turanlı and Prof. Dr. Emel Timuçin. In this blog, my purpose is to share articles about studies that I like, focusing on genetics, bioinformatics, and molecular biology, and about my own work.
Topics I'm working on: Biomarker analysis and familial segregation analysis in WES data, and GWAS associations related to Multiple Sclerosis, variant pathogenicity prediction tool.
