PhD Student, University of Amsterdam

Biography

I am a doctoral researcher at INDElab, University of Amsterdam, advised by Dr. Victoria Degeler and Prof. Dr. Paul Groth.

My research focuses on interpretable decision-making through Neurosymbolic knowledge discovery and inference, applied to Digital Twins and medical datasets.

I hold an MSc in Computer Science from TU Munich and a BSc in Computer Engineering from Yildiz Technical University, Istanbulİstanbul <3. Previously, I was a research assistant at fortiss and worked as a software engineer and consultant.

I am open to academic and non-academic collaborations -- feel free to reach out: e.karabulut@uva.nl
