I am an associate professor in the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture at the Altınbaş University, Istanbul. I am also a YÖK-TEBİP professor at Istanbul University and an affiliated researcher at Sabancı University Nanotechnology Research and Application Center. At Altınbaş University, I serve as the vice dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture as well as the head of Department of Basic Sciences.
In addition to my academic duties, I am the director of the Scientific Research Projects department of Altınbaş University. My responsibilities include the coordination and management of research strategies and projects: internal funding, TÜBİTAK, ISTKA and European Union.
After receiving two B.Sc. degrees in Chemistry and Physics Engineering and a M.Sc. degree in Chemistry from Istanbul Technical University, I received a joint doctoral degree from Istanbul Technical University and Technische Universität Berlin in 2017. My research group, Kaygusuz Lab, focuses on nanotechnology and biomedical applications of biopolymers.
