Selected media
Public outreach & science communication
My scientific journey on deutschland.de
On the trail of earthquakes traces how the 1999 İzmit earthquake led me to seismology and how my work now connects research in Türkiye and Germany through earthquake-swarm, fluid and hazard studies.
Earthquake swarms & ELISE
Research and field activities covered across major and regional media, including Der Spiegel, Tagesschau, Leipziger Volkszeitung, Česká Televize and Radio Prague.
Earthquakes & cascading hazards
Public communication on earthquake preparedness—including coverage in VDI Nachrichten—reservoir-triggered seismicity and seismic monitoring of the Çöpler gold-mine landslide.
Research communication & public engagement
Contributions spanning earthquake science, risk culture and public understanding through Spektrum, EurekAlert!/AAAS and Hürriyet Pazar.
Featured scientific contribution
TRACE: AI for earthquake monitoring and early warning
Türkiye Real-time AI Catalog for Earthquake Monitoring and Early Warning is an interdisciplinary research project and AI lab at Boğaziçi University’s Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, supported by Google.org.
Explore the TRACE project →Connecting AI with earthquake science
I contribute seismological insight and subject-matter expertise to TRACE. The project brings together seismic observations, regional Earth models, physical modelling and computational tools to support AI model development, real-time earthquake analysis, monitoring and early warning.
TRACE also provides a shared research and training environment for students, early-career researchers and operational institutions working in earthquake science.
Knowledge exchange
Invited talks, workshops & fieldwork
Invited talks & seminars
Invited presentations at GFZ, Istanbul Technical University, INGV, the Czech Academy of Sciences, University of Alaska Fairbanks and Kandilli Observatory.
Watch: The Anatomy of Seismic Swarms in the Eger Rift →International workshops & training
Advanced training and exchange in volcano monitoring, earthquake fault mechanics, ocean-bottom seismology, tsunami modelling, deep-Earth processes and science communication.
Field campaigns
Active participation in seismic network installation, service and quality control, including international Large-N deployments and volcano-focused field experience.
Scientific coordination
Building communities and collaborations through CHASING, ELISE, TopoAsia and international seismological networks.
