Background

I received my Ph.D. in Mathematics in 2013 from University of Washington, Seattle under the supervision of Gunther Uhlmann. After that I spent 4 years at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor as a postdoctoral assistant professor and a year at Dartmouth College as a John Wesley Young Research Instructor. Since Fall-2018, I'm an assistant professor in the department of mathematics at Koç University. Click for publications and taught classes.

Researh Interests

Applied mathematics, in particular, Inverse problems for PDEs and imaging, wave propagation, mathematical analysis and reconstruction algorithms of imaging modalities (Radar/Sonar, Ultrasound, impedance tomography, medical and geophysical imaging etc). Other interests include compressive sensing and scientific computing.
