The project entitled “Integrated Photonic and Microfluidic Early Diagnosis Systems Platform”, which is a joint effort of an interdisciplinary project team formed by three faculty members from different departments, has been awarded funding for a period of 3 years with a total budget of 7.5 million TRY under the Istanbul Technical University Platform Projects Program (IPMED).

Within the IPMED platform, carried out through the collaboration of the Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry, and Molecular Biology and Genetics departments, Dr. Abdulhalim KILIÇ contributes to molecular biology–based research within the scope of the “bio-interface development” work package. Bringing together photonic, microfluidic, and biosensor technologies, the project aims to develop innovative, domestic, and interdisciplinary solutions for the early diagnosis of cancer and other diseases.
