Onur Karakaslar
Computational Biologist
PhD Candidate @ LUMC / TU Delft
Amsterdam, NL
It is no easy task to introduce yourself to an audience who does not know you. But, here we go!
I am Onur, a senior PhD candidate studying Computational Biology. Currently I am analyzing single-cell multi-omics data from a cohort of Acute Myeloid Leukemia patients to essentially characterize the disease better. I was and am involved in various cutting-edge scientific projects specifically in the areas related to immunology, aging and AI/ML.
Previously, I was a Computational Biologist (shocker!) at The Jackson Laboratory in Farmington, CT; and before that I was in Turkey obtaining my BSc (EEE’17) and MSc (CS’19) degrees from Bilkent University.
