Our faculty member Burcu Ayşen Ürgen published a new paper titled “A parietal region processing numerosity of observed actions: An fMRI study”  in European Journal of Neuroscience. The other authors of the paper are Hiromasa Sawamura from University of Tokyo (Japan), Guy A. Orban from University of Parma (Italy), and Daniele Corbo from University of […]

A work from UMRAM focused on the fast methods for designing RF transmit array coils resulted in a manuscript entitled “Accelerating the co-simulation method for the design of transmit array coils for MRI.” In this study, the co-simulation method is considerably accelerated for the design of tramsnit array coils. As a proof of concept, an eight-channel degenerate […]

Görkem Er, Zahide Pamir and Hüseyin Boyaci have published an article titled ”Distinct patterns of surround modulation in V1 and hMT+” in NeuroImage. Using fMRI and a well-studied motion paradigm, in which sensitivity to direction of motion increases (decreases) for a low (high) contrast stimulus as its size gets bigger, Er et al. show that […]

Mehdi Shafiei Aporvari, Mustafa Utkur, and Emine Ulku Saritas have published an article titled “Anisotropic Dynamics of a Self-assembled Colloidal Chain in an Active Bath” in Soft Matter. This paper was a collaborative work with Giovanni Volpe (previously with the Department of Physics in Bilkent, now with University of Gothenburg) and Joakim Stenhammar (with Lund […]

Emine Ülkü Sarıtaş, faculty member at UMRAM and Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) of Bilkent, has been promoted to Associate Professor level. Prior to joining Bilkent as a faculty member in 2013, she was a postdoctoral fellow at the Department of Bioengineering at University of California, Berkeley from 2010-2013. She received her Ph.D. […]
