I am a 3rd year student at Konya Food and Agriculture University, Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics. Thanks to the preparatory education I received in my first year at university, I had the opportunity to increase the English level up to B2 level. So far, I have gained experience in the laboratories of biology, chemistry and physics courses. I aimed to consolidate the experiences I gained with my internship at Ege University, Children’s Hospital, Molecular Medicine Laboratory. I am interested in forensic science. Also, I want to work on stem cell and cancer biology academically.

Büşra Elif Kıvrak
I’m a fresh graduate student who majored in Molecular Biology and Genetics at Konya Food&Agriculture University. My interest is mainly in Plant Genetics that’s why I had my internships and my student project granted by the TUBITAK-2209A BIDEB Support Program is in this area. However, the concept of this competition was quite exciting for me and I enjoyed having literature reviews on CRISPR and genetic diseases. To communicate science, I am preparing articles on different topics about biology which are published on BilimUp blog of Konya Science Center.
