Cemre Su Kaya Keles received her B.S. degree in Bioengineering, with a double major in Chemical Engineering and she holds M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Biomedical Engineering. Her postgraduate studies were in the field of biomechanics with a focus on force transmission mechanisms of skeletal muscles and the contribution of muscular characteristics to human motion using human and animal experiments, and musculoskeletal models. After working as a research assistant at Boğaziçi University during her doctoral years, she is now a researcher at the University of Stuttgart.
