Pınar Çakır Hatır,  Assoc. Prof.

Dr. Pınar Çakır Hatır graduated from Boğaziçi University with B.Sc. degree in Chemistry in 2004. Afterward, she completed her M.Sc. studies at Boğaziçi University. She received her Ph.D. degree in Biotechnology from Sorbonne Universities, the University of Technology of Compiègne, France, in 2012. During her Ph.D., she worked in “Molecularly imprinted polymer nanostructures”. She was also employed as the early-stage researcher in EU research networks NASCENT and IRMED. Since 2013, she has been involved in numerous national and international research projects as the coordinator and researcher. Currently, she is conducting a national project (TÜBİTAK3501) and a EuroNanoMed project under Horizon 2020 (4NanoEARDRUM). Additionally, she is one of two COST Action management committee members (CA16215) from Turkey. She received the Marie-Skłodowska Curie Actions Seal of Excellence Award for her proposal in 2019 (Score: 88.4%). Her research interests focus on developing molecularly imprinted polymers, smart hydrogels, micro/nanostructured materials for biomedical applications. She is also interested in renewable resources and environmentally friendly synthesis methods.
