I'm affiliated with Hacettepe University, Department of Computer Engineering since 1998. I received my Ph.D. degree from Department of Computer Science, Purdue University. I received my B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees from Department of Computer Engineering, Hacettepe University. I am an alumni of Ankara Science High School.

My primary research interests concentrate on two main fields: information security and computer vision. In the information security field, I'm especially interested in trust management in distributed systems and applications of cryptography. In the computer vision field, I'm interested in usage of depth information in various vision problems and medical image processing.
