icon UNAM researcher selected as a recipient of the IEEE Electron Devices Society Masters Student Fellowship for 2010.

scienceawards The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers or IEEE is an international non-profit, professional organization for the advancement of technology related to electricity. It has the highest number of members among all technical professional organizations in the world, with more than 395,000 members in around 150 countries. The Fellowship Program was established to promote, recognize, and support masters level study and research within the Electron Devices Society's field of interest. In 2010, only three researchers in the world, Oguz Hanoglu among them, are awarded with this fellowship.(http://www.ieee.org/portal/pages/society/eds/education/mastersstudentfellowship.html) Oguz Hanoglu received his B.Sc degree in electrical engineering from Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey, in 2009. He is currently a researcher working at UNAM as a member of Okyay Research Team. His main research topic is low-cost, portable, and highly sensitive nano-biosensors for label-free protein detection. These kind of biosensors are promising for timely and effective diagnostics of various cancer diseases. Oguz is also interested in fabrication and characterization of high temperature coefficient of resistance structures. These structures have critical applications in the field of uncooled bolometer based thermal imaging systems. In his research, Oguz uses the UNAM Cleanroon Facility intensively. Lithography, E-beam evaporation, Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD), Wet Etching are some of the fabrication techniques he uses in the UNAM cleanroom. Meanwhile, Oguz is the goalkeeper of UNAM Cleanroom Facility football team.
