Bio
Dr. Coskun is currently an Instructor of Radiology at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Coskun has been working with Prof. Garry Nolan as a faculty member at Stanford University. Dr. Coskun is an alumnus of the Ignite Entrepreneurship Program at the Stanford University Graduate School of Business. He is a recipient of the Burroughs Wellcome Fund CASI Award, National Institutes of Health K25 Career Award, and Leukemia & Lymphoma Research Fellowship.
Dr. Coskun previously trained with Prof. Long Cai at California Institute of Technology for his postdoctoral work in systems biology and with Prof. Peter P. Lee at the Beckman Research Institute in immuno-oncology. He holds a Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of California, Los Angeles working with Prof. Aydogan Ozcan and bachelor’s degrees in Physics and Electrical Engineering from Koc University, Turkey.
Dr. Coskun researches single cell proteomics and genomics, precision medicine, and biophotonics. Using quantitative imaging and computational analysis tools, Dr. Coskun explores how “spatial” nature of cell-to-cell interactions and subcellular variations lead to fascinating developmental programming in healthy individuals and devastating abnormal formation in leukemias and breast cancers. Dr. Coskun promotes the use of Bioart and Nanoart for teaching, entrepreneurship in biotechnology, and Open Science to liberate scientific progress.
