Sare Tokuş
2021 - 2025 B.Sc., Biomedical Engineering, Istinye University
As a Biomedical Engineering student at Istinye University, my academic journey has been centered on point-of-care devices, particularly wearable and IoT-based solutions, with the goal of addressing undiagnosed health conditions through advanced diagnostics.
In my first year (2021), I began working as an undergraduate researcher in the Modelling and Simulation Lab with Şenol Pişkin, where I contributed to the NeuroVascularHealth (European Horizon Project). My role involved data collection and visualization of diffusion MRI (dMRI) data. Since then, I have expanded my research focus to include the study of Photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors, specifically aiming to improve non-invasive detection of Iron Deficiency Anemia using data from Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients. This work has provided me with extensive experience in biomedical signal processing, feature selection and extraction, and machine learning applications, particularly using MATLAB.
In 2023, I worked as a BAP scholar in the lab, and I currently work at the university as a Student Assistant. I am also a co-inventor on two pending patents: Non-invasive Vascular Deformation and Disease Detection System and Method (2022) and A Wearable Device and Method for Simulating Sensation of Wind (2023).
Outside of academia, I am an amateur artist working with acrylics, oil painting, and digital design tools. I am also passionate about exploring AI models and their ethical applications as a future academician. Additionally, I enjoy sports, learning about healthy lifestyle habits, and keeping up with new trends.
