For sometime Turkish scientists have been actively involved in biotechnology related research. However, biotechnology education in Turkey is a relatively recent phenomenon. The subject has not been addressed at the undergraduate level in a serious way until recently, This is evident from the lack of undergraduate degree programmes in biotechnology at Turkish Universities. The Turkish scientific establishment is very much aware of the importance of biotechnology and has identified this subject as one of the priority areas. The Universities are taking positive steps towards enhancing Biotechnology education. This article focuses on the emergence, as well as the problems and prospects of Biotechnology education in Turkey. (C) 2000 IUBMB. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Türkiye'nin Ulusal Bilim ve Teknoloji Politikalarında Bilgi Yönetimine Yaklaşım: 2000 Yılı Sonrası İçin Bir Değerlendirme Ekici, Selda (Ankara University - Faculty of Language and History-Geography, 2020-12-15) Türkiye'de 2000 yılı ve sonrasında oluşturulan ulusal bilim-teknoloji politikalarında bilgi yönetimine yaklaşımı ve bakış açısını ortaya koymak amacıyla gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmada, bilgi yönetimi kavramının çerçevesi “bilgi kaynakları, bilgi hizmetleri, bilgi sistemleri ve bilgi altyapısı” unsurlarını içeren bilgi politikası bağlamında çizilmiş, bilginin elde edilmesi, bilimsel ve teknik yöntemlerle düzenlenmesi ve sunulması anlamıyla ele alınmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında belirlenen amaca ulaşabilmek...
Analyzing foresight studies in converging technologies of EU, USA and Turkey Çalışır, İbrahim; Geray, Haluk; Department of Science and Technology Policy Studies (2006) The aim of this study is to examine the situation of converging technologies - nano technology, biotechnology, information technologies, and cognitive science - in Turkish foresight study and to analyze situation of Turkey. The research on convergence in Turkish foresight is carried out in the first foresight study of Turkey, Vision2023 consisting of Delphi Report, Panel Reports and Strategy Reports. All of these reports are investigated thoroughly to find out the statements about the converging technologie...
A case study of impact analysis: Tübitak research support programmes Tanrıkulu Erden, İlkay; Çakır, Serhat; Department of Physics (2010) The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey is the major academic research management and funding agency in Turkey. As a policy-maker, the council has undertaken very important responsibility in designing a science and technology policy of Turkey. By means of impact analysis, evaluating the ongoing research support programmes is important for designing more effective ones. However, impact of academic research are widely disseminated, journal articles being published and cited, number of acad...
Development of new synthetic methodologies for indole derivatives Kılıklı, Ahmet Alper; Balcı, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2010) Synthesizing nitrogen containing heterocyclic compounds is one of the leading research areas throughout the organic chemistry due to their significant activities on biological systems. Among the various biologically active molecules, indole derivatives are of prime importance on the grounds of their proven clinical roles. Objective of this study is to synthesize new indole derivatives those may contribute treatment of several diseases like their analogues via a recently developed synthetic methodology. Besi...
A Hybrid feature selection model for genome wide association studies Yücebaş, Sait Can; Baykal, Nazife; Aydın Son, Yeşim; Department of Health Informatics (2013) Through Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) many SNP-complex disease relations have been investigated so far. GWAS presents high amount – high dimensional data and relations between SNPs, phenotypes and diseases are most likely to be nonlinear. In order to handle high volume-high dimensional data and to be able to find the nonlinear relations, data mining approaches are needed. A hybrid feature selection model of support vector machine and decision tree has been designed. This model also combines the gen...
