Zeynep Simge Yılmaz

In 2018–2019, I completed my English preparatory education at Gebze Technical University and transferred to Yıldız Technical University. I graduated from Yıldız Technical University as an honors student with a GPA of 3.48/4.00. My graduation thesis was on the Role of Epigenetic Mechanisms in Cancer. I did my summer internship at the Ege University Cord Blood Cell Tissue Application and Research Centre and the Ege University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Histology and Embryology. During this period, I took part in cell/tissue culture and mesenchymal stem cell/cancer stem cell culture studies. I had the chance to observe in vivo and in vitro studies simultaneously. I started my masters degree at Ege University, Department of Histology and Embryology, in October 2023. During this period, I actively participated in tissue tracking procedure, sectioning, histochemical staining, and photography with light microscope in histology laboratory. I also had the opportunity to work with experimental animals. I participated in two social responsibility projects during my master's degree. Also, I have Certificate of Animal Use in Experimental Research.

I have a published book chapter, a Q1 article and 3 more articles in publication. I left my 5-month masters degree with a 4.00/4.00 GPA at the end of the first semester. I have a B2 English level, but I am actively preparing for IELTS.
