About Me

My Journey

My fascination with data began during my MSc in Biotechnology at METU, where I discovered the incredible potential of machine learning in bioinformatics. After achieving a 4.0 GPA from all courses, I realized my talent and curiosity in coding.

I wrote my thesis on text embeddings and gene-cell type annotation, building machine learning prediction models that integrate NLP and ML techniques for enhanced scRNA classification. This research experience solidified my expertise in data analysis and ML.
