The aim is to fabricate a thermoplastic made microbioreactor that is capable of cell trapping. Yeasts are treated with RNA and DNA syntheses inhibitors to investigate ribosome biogenesis and DNA damage response. The device can be used for therapeutic applications.

Elif Gencturk, Researcher, Bogazici University

I graduated from the Chemical Engineering Department of the Bogazici University in 2013. I completed my M.Sc thesis which was related the design and fabrication of a microbioreactor for yeast culturing in 2015 at the same department. Now, I am a PhD student at the same department and I have been working on development of microfluidic platforms for therapeutic purposes. Moreover, I am a research and teaching assistant since 2014.
