Biography

  Dr. Urey received the BS degree from Middle East Technical University, Ankara, in 1992, and MS and Ph.D. degrees from Georgia Institute of Technology in 1996 and in 1997, all in Electrical Engineering. He worked for Bilkent University-Ankara and Georgia Tech Research Institute-Atlanta as a graduate research assistant, and Call/Recall Inc.-San Diego, as a co-op programme exchange student. After completing his PhD, he joined Microvision Inc.-Seattle as Research Engineer and he played a key role in the development of the Retinal Scanning Display technology. He was the Principal System Engineer when he left Microvision to join the faculty of engineering at Koç University in 2001. He was promoted to Associate Professor in 2007.

 He published 35 journal papers and more than 80 international conference papers, 7 edited books, 2 book chapters, and has more than 20 issued and several pending patents. His research interests are in the area of optical MEMS, micro-optics and optical system design, 2D/3D display and imaging systems, and biosensors. He is a member of SPIE, IEEE, and OSA, and the vice-chair of the IEEE-LEOS Turkey chapter.

   He received the TÜBİTAK-Encouragement Award in 2009, Outstanding Young Scientist (TÜBA-GEBİP) award from the Turkish Academy of Sciences (TÜBA) in 2007 and Werner Von Siemens Excellence award in 2006 for outstanding research performance at Koç University, a special award from Microvision Inc. for contributions to the development of Scanning Technologies in 2008, and JCI (Junior Commerce International) Top Outstanding Young Person Award in Science and Technology category in 2008.
