Alongside my studies, I also have very good friends! This page is dedicated to our collaborative projects and serves as a shout-out to them. I really appreciate their efforts in doing all sorts of things.
I wanted to dedicate this page to them as they are brilliant people and we had a lot to share! (All alphabetically ordered because I love you all)
Professors
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Emre Yağlı
Assoc. Prof. at Hacettepe University
Dear Dr. Yağlı and I have worked on numerous projects together, I have learned a lot from him on sociolinguistics, phonetics, research methodology and ethics. He has supported many of my endeavours during my Bachelor’s, and he has been much more than a professor to me. I have shared the pleasure of running a project, publishing a book chapter and working on a lot more together.
Research interests
Sociolinguistics, phonetics & phonology, language ideology

Assoc. Prof. Dr. İpek Pınar Uzun
Assoc. Prof. at Ankara University
Researcher at AU-BRC, Phonetics Laboratory
Dear Prof. Uzun and I met at a conference where she has been immensely supportive of my computational linguistics projects. I have had the pleasure of joining her internship programme at the Ankara University Brain Research Center and later joining her laboratory research group with Berkay. She has taught me psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, laboratory phonology and many more from scratch as she did with many students. We have worked on a number of projects together on Turkish phonology and psycholinguistics.
Research interests

Ksenik / Esperanta blogisto
Ksenik is a good friend whom I have known for many years. She has an active YouTube channel, a website, an Instagram account, and several other social media accounts, all entirely in Esperanto!
I have been a fan of her content for quite some time, and I believe her contribution to the Esperanto movement deserves greater appreciation.
