I'm a senior researcher (equivalent to Assistant Professor) in the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), the Netherlands. I am a member of the Information and Communication Theory (ICT) Lab.
I received the B.Sc. and the M.Sc. degrees from the Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey, both in electrical and electronics engineering, in 2013 and 2015, respectively. I obtained my Ph.D. degree in 2020 from TU/e. From 2020 to 2023, I was a postdoc researcher at the ICT Lab. Since 2024, I am a senior researcher. Since January 2023, I also do part-time consultancy work for IC2H Consulting.
My research has received multiple awards, including Best Paper awards at the 2018 WIC/IEEE Symposium on Information Theory and Signal Processing in the Benelux and at the 2022 Optica Advanced Photonics Congress, a 2023 Quantum Delta NL exchange visit grant, and a 2024 International Excellence Fellowship from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). My technical expertise and research interests lie in the intersection of information theory and communication theory, with a particular focus on the design of coded modulation and constellation shaping techniques for wireless/optical communications.
