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. […]
