Assist. Prof. Muhammed Fatih Toy
[email protected]M. Fatih Toy completed his undergraduate studies at Koç University, Turkey in the field of Electrical and Electronics Engineering in 2006. He continued to his M.Sc. studies in the same institution in the field of Electrical and Computer Engineering. He earned his D.Sc. degree in photonics under the co-guidance of Applied Photonics Laboratory of Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) and Space Biology Group of ETH Zurich. In scope of his doctoral research, Dr. Toy has focused on the high-resolution 3D imaging of living cells under zero gravity conditions. He gathered the work in the thesis “3D Optical Imaging of Living Cells in Microgravity: Application to Study Dynamic Changes of Cytoskeleton”. After the completion of his studies in 2013, he continued to work in EPFL as a scientist. At the end of the year, he took place in the establishment of a startup company, Nanolive, as a co-founder. He decided to pursue his academic career in Turkey in 2015 and joined to Istanbul Medipol University School of Engineering and Natural Sciences as an assistant professor.
His main research interests are label free optical microscopy, optical super-resolution, digital holography, quantitative phase imaging, and optical diffraction tomography.
