Research Focus Summary – Prof. Zeynep Birsu Çinçin
My interdisciplinary research integrates molecular oncology, nanobiotechnology, and artificial intelligence to develop innovative diagnostics and targeted therapies, particularly for glioblastoma, endometrial, and lung cancers. I have extensively explored apoptosis, signal transduction pathways (e.g., PI3K/AKT, mTOR/RAS, MAPK), and gene polymorphisms in tumor progression. My work also bridges neurogenetics and circadian medicine to address neuroinflammation and brain tumor pathophysiology. Recently, I have led projects on AI-driven diagnostic algorithms and nanoparticle-mediated drug delivery systems, contributing to personalized and precision oncology solutions.More...
