What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Clinical Research Intern position within a pharmaceutical organization, where I can apply my scientific background, clinical experience, and focus on protocol compliance and data integrity to global clinical studies and site management.

I led a TÜBİTAK-approved randomized controlled study comparing virtual reality and serious games during skin prick tests in children. I coordinated ethics approvals, recruitment, informed consent and assent, and protocol-compliant study procedures.

At ALCOA CRO, I assisted senior CRA/CTA staff with Trial Master File maintenance, essential document reconciliation, and site communication logs. I gained exposure to phase-based pharmaceutical trial workflows and monitoring visit preparation.

At Koç University Hospital, I delivered acute pre- and post-operative nursing care in the urology inpatient ward. My background also includes molecular laboratory work at Koç University Center for Translational Medicine, where I assisted with colorectal oncology research and RNA/mRNA extraction.
