Bilkent academics secure funding from MSCAs

Turkey’s Bilkent University has announced that two of its academics have received funding from Horizon 2020.

Dr Kemal Çelebi, from the National Nanotechnology Research Center, and Dr Onur Tokel, from Ultrafast Optics and Lasers Laboratory, have received financing from the 2014 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Individual Fellowships scheme. Both the centre and the laboratory are based at Bilkent University, a private university located just outside the Turkish capital Ankara.

Çelebi secured funding for his ‘Graphene Membranes’ project which, according to the university, focuses on “the new generation of industrial membranes”.

Tokel’s ‘SMILE’ project centres on “3D silicon micromachining with infrared ultrafast lasers”.
