We are now offering an undergraduate class on Bioinformatics as part of the ITU Computer Engineering curriculum for third-year students. Check out the BLG 348E - Introduction to Bioinformatics at ITU course offerings list for Fall 2023.

Drs. Mehmet Baysan and Ali Cakmak present the Bioinformatics Labs research activities at ITU - TUSEB collaboration workshop held in Maslak Hilton Hotel.

Scholars and project staff will be recruited for our genetic sequencing projects. Participants will receive training on genetic data analysis, more specifically the use of sequencing technologies, and will take part in current projects.

Dr. Cakmak gave a talk on predicting virus mutations at Teknofest 2023 in the AI in Health pavilion.

Dr. Cakmak took part in Teknofest 2023 as a referee for the Bioinformatics category.

Our team has won a prestigious prize as the 3rd best team at Teknofest’s AI in Health competitions under the Bioinformatics category. Congratulations!

Our recent work titled Optimizing Pipeline Combinations for Cancer Sequencing is presented at 13th The International Symposium on Health Informatics and Bioinformatics. You can click here to learn details about this poster.

Batuhan Kısakol has been accepted to Integrate PhD training program which is co-funded by Marrie Curie Actions of European Commission. Congrats!

Master students Batuhan Kısakol and Mehmet Arif Ergün presented their poster titled “Evaluation of Cancer Sequencing Pipelines on Patient Samples with Different Heterogeneity Levels” at The International Symposium on Health Informatics and Bioinformatics.
