Elifsu Polatlı
Postdoctoral Fellow
I am a postdoctoral fellow in Ben Maoz’s lab. I completed my PhD at the Department of Genomics and Molecular Biotechnology in the İzmir Biomedicine and Genome Institute, at Dokuz Eylul University. My PhD research involved developing various dynamic platforms to model several types of tissues and in vivo cellular responses.
Ben’s laboratory utilizes innovative and dynamic multidisciplinary approaches to tackle their research objectives. His research focuses on modelling human physiology using microfluidic platforms which is closely aligned with what I wish to work on over the coming years.
During my post doc I will be developing novel biological models by utilizing microfluidic platforms.
In my free time I like to spend time with my furry friend Bulut as well as my less furry human friends.
