More about me

My name is Emrah Eroglu, and I am a biotechnologist and molecular biologist. I have a passion for developing innovative tools and techniques that allow us to better understand cellular processes at the single-molecule level. We have generated several cutting-edge biosensors for real-time imaging of various signaling molecules, including Calcium, Nitric Oxide, ATP, Potassium, and Hydrogen peroxide.

In August 2019, we established a live-cell imaging laboratory at Sabanci University, and in August 2022, we relocated the lab to Istanbul Medipol University to work with partner labs at SABITA, a premier research facility and high-end imaging core in Eurasia. Our lab is dedicated to creating multiparametric high-content imaging approaches and chemogenetic tools to study reactive oxygen species and other critical signaling molecules.

If you are interested in learning powerful live-imaging techniques, designing & developing biosensors and chemogenetic tools to uncover the mysteries of life, I invite you to join my lab. To learn more about my recent work and research, visit the “Research” section of my website and check out our “Publications.” If you have any questions or would like more information, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me via email.
