Prof. Dr. Gürkan Öztürk
[email protected]He obtained graduate degree from Hacettepe Medical School in 1993 as medical doctor. He was in the UK between 1995-1999 to do PhD in physiology at King’s College London. After receiving the Ph.D. degree Dr. ÖztÜrk returned Turkey and started to work as assistant professor in Yüzüncü Yıl University, Medical School, Van. In 2001 he established a centre for neuroscience where he would lead high impact research for about ten years. He was invited to join newly established Istanbul Medipol University in 2010 as full professor where he was given the responsibility to design research infrastructure. In 2012 he got a substantial governmental grant with which he directed establishment of “Regenerative and Restorative Medicine Research Center – REMER”. Later, with a follow-up grant he upgraded REMER to SABITA, a roof institute that currently harbors multiple research centers and facilities beside REMER. Dr. Öztürk is currently holding a faculty position in Physiology Department of the International School of Medicine. He is head of basic medicine science department and director of SABITA.
