Authors

Burak Guclu Professor, Institute of Biomedical Engineering, Bogazici University, Istanbul, Turkey. Prof. Burak G��l� has an engineering background (BS in 1997: Control and Computer Engineering, Istanbul Technical University; MS in 1999: Bioengineering, Syracuse University), completed PhD (2003, Syracuse University) and postdoctoral work (University of Rochester) in neuroscience mostly with specialization on the somatosensory system. He has over 20 years of experience in theoretical and experimental research involving the sense of touch in animals, humans, and for engineering applications such as neuroprosthetics and tactile sensors/displays. He has 51 articles published in refereed journals and over 120 publications in conferences. He has worked in grant projects funded by NIH, T�BITAK, European Union, and university agencies; is currently part of an EU consortium for the use of graphene electrodes in neuroprosthetics, and has established Tactile Research Laboratory and the animal facility (Vivarium) at Bogazi�i University. He has taught courses on sensory systems, computational neuroscience, biophysics, and biomedical instrumentation, and gave numerous lectures and provided media coverage on somatosensory feedback in neuroprosthetics.
