Her research focuses primarily on the areas of nanotechnology and microtechnology and focuses on the problems of cancer treatment and antibiotic resistance. MIT Technology Review , the journal of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology , included it in the pioneers category in its annual TR35 list, among the 35 best young innovators in 2015 [2] .
Biography
Durmush was born in 1985 in the Turkish city of Izmir [3] . In 2003, she began her studies at the Middle East Technical University , located in Ankara, specializing in molecular biology and genetics. Durmush later won a Fulbright Program grant and moved to the United States to continue her education. In 2009, she received a master's degree in engineering and technology from Boston University , and in May 2013 she received a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering from Brown University [4] .
In 2014, Durmush became a doctoral student at Stanford University . She currently continues her research with Ronald W. Davis at the Center for Genome Technology at Stanford University and the Stanford School of Medicine [5] . In 2015, she was included in the Top 35 Innovators Under 35 rating (TR35), as a pioneer in biotechnology and medicine, by MIT Technology Review .
Scientific activity
Her work is focused on the development of inexpensive nanotechnological tools that can be used to diagnose and treat diseases, such as, for example, a quick method for detecting the physical characteristics of cells by levitating in a magnetic field, which allows us to measure how the microbe reacts in a shorter period of time on a specific drug [2] and allows you to differentiate cancer cells from healthy ones [6] .
