Sadık Bay
I am currently Senior Researcher at the Istanbul Medipol University, Institute for Health Sciences and Technologies. My major focus was the establishment of the Advanced Imaging Laboratory and cell culture laboratory (especially culture of primary neurons). I was involved in purchase and setup of the microscopy systems, which include some of the most advanced setups from Zeiss such as, a 2-photon microscope, LSM 780-800-880 (with fast airyscan) Confocal systems, a Spinning Disk Time Lapse system, a PALM microdissection and tweezer system, Axiozoom V16, GeminiSEM (SEM and TEM) and several stereo microscopes.In 2017 I finished my master’s degree in the field of Neuroscience, with the titled of “The effects of axotomy injury on membrane tension of dorsal root ganglion neurons”. I received PhD degree in the field of Biochemistry, with the titled of “The role of Hippo pathway in axolotl limb regeneration” in 2021.
I will continue my future career in Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. I will work about Heat Shock Proteins in several neurodegenerative diseases.
