Hatice Gülen, born in Adana in 1967, graduated from Çukurova University, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Horticulture in 1988. After she had MSc degree in 1992, she started PhD studies at the same university in 2004. She received her Ph.D. degree in 2000 after she carried out her thesis on plant molecular physiology at West Virginia University (USA) as a TUBITAK scholar between 1998-1999. She studied plant genetics and biotechnology in the Institute of HANIA (Greece 1995), the Hebrew University (Israel, 2006) and West Virginia University (2009). She started working at the Uludağ University in 2000 and became an Associate Professor in 2005 and Professor in 2011. During this period, she founded Plant Biotechnology and Plant Molecular Physiology Research Laboratories. She took an active role in the establishment of the Molecular Biology and Genetics graduate and undergraduate programs between 2013-2016. She served as the Vice Dean of the Faculty of Agriculture in 2011-2015. She coordinated program accreditation (MÜDEK and ABET) process and took place in continuous improvement and quality studies at the Rectorate. She continued her academic studies at Istanbul Bilgi University after 2016. She founded the Plant Biotechnology Research Laboratory in the Department of Genetics and Bioengineering. During her tenure as the Head of the Department until 2021, Genetics and Bioengineering Undergraduate Program received the MÜDEK accreditation. She has been involved in many research projects as PI or as researcher in interdisciplinary projects related to green biotechnology applications. She appointed as an expert external research evaluator in the EU Marie Skłodowska-Curie COFUND action USAL4EXCELLENCE (2021- 2025). She has the "Training of Trainers" certificate authorised by TPI about patent. Professor Gülen having certificates in 'Quality Management System', 'Process Management, Interaction and Improvement Techniques', and 'MÜDEK Program Accreditation Evaluator', is a MÜDEK Program Accreditation Evaluator. She has supervised graduate thesis and published many papers and book chapters. She holds 3 national and 1 international patents.
