I am a postdoctoral research associate in Imperial College London with a focus on multimodal language learning. I received my PhD in 2019 from the Informatics Laboratory (LIUM) of Le Mans University. During summer 2018, I visited Johns Hopkins University as a graduate student in the Grounded Sequence to Sequence Transduction Team, within the JSALT workshop.
Between 2012-2017, I worked as a research & teaching assistant in the Computer Engineering Dept. of Galatasaray University in Istanbul, Turkey where I lectured practical sessions for undergraduate courses such as Algorithms, C Programming, Microprocessors and Operating Systems. I obtained my MSc. degree from Galatasaray University as well where I developed a simple embedded system for a Brain-computer Interface application. You can access my MSc. thesis from here.
Between 2007-2012, I took part in the Pardus Linux project within the Scientific & Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) as a full-time Linux developer.
I am a signatory of the petition called Academics for Peace against which a series of unlawful actions have been taken by the Turkish state since 2016. Click here for the recent updates.
