I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at TU Berlin, Germany, under the supervision of Prof. Fatma Deniz. I work on understanding bilinugal language processing in human brain and multilinugal language models.
I completed my PhD in Computer Science at Inria, I was supervised by Dr. Xavier Hinaut and Prof. Alexandre Frederic. During my Ph.D, I also spent time as a visiting scholar at MaxPlanck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS), Germany, where I was supervised by Dr. Mariya Toneva. My main research interests are at the Bridging AI and Neuroscience (Neuro-AI), Language Analysis in the Brain and Language Models, Multimodal brain alignment with multimodal models, and Mechanistic interpretability of language moedls.
Prior to that, I was a Lead Data Scientist at Woundtech Innovative Healthcare Solutions, where I worked on AI-driven solutions for automated wound assessment, patient risk of hospitalization, wound image segmentation and NLP-based document processing to enhance clinician decision-making. Before that, I was a Data Scientist at Teradata R&D, where I worked on NLP, text analytics, machine learning, and graph analytics to enhance Teradata Aster’s AI/ML capabilities.
