- Profile
-
I graduated in 2019 from Istanbul Cerrahpasa University with a bachelors degree in Gerontology, before completing a masters at Istanbul University (Turkey) in social policy and social services. My master's degree focused on municipal home care services for older people.
In 2022, I started my PhD studies (funded by the Turkish Government). My research will focus on social support and health-related quality of life in older people.
