Harun Yırıkoğulları
[email protected]Harun Yırıkoğulları graduated from Ankara Yıldırım Beyazıt University in 2018 with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology. He is a graduate student in Neuroscience at Istanbul Medipol University. He also works in the Cognitive Neuroscience and EEG Laboratory under the supervision of Professor Bahar Güntekin. He was accepted to the Erasmus exchange program for one semester and joined the International Research Center for Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience (IrcCAN) under supervision of Professor Michela Balconi. He is currently working on his master's thesis focusing on the effects of acute sleep deprivation on working memory and its underlying electrophysiological mechanisms. He has been a member of the Güntekin Lab since 2019 and is currently a lecturer in the Electroneurophysiology Program at Istanbul Medipol University. As a PhD candidate in neuroscience under the supervision of Professor Bahar Güntekin, he is currently developing his doctoral thesis, which investigates how light stimulation modulates cognitive functions and neural oscillatory dynamics following sleep deprivation.
