Sevim Naz KARIŞIK

Second year student at İTÜ Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics While I was questioning what is my purpose to come to this world and why I am here, I met genetics. The thought that one day I could contribute to people, the world and science made me find my way. I felt I was going to touch life. And my biggest goal has become try to change something and find a solution by struggling to the end without giving up. Main interests include molecular genetics, developmental biology and embryology.
