Lab Manager

I am the manager of Ece's lab, but I am not a typical one at that. I don't do science in the most common sense of the word or participate in the day-to-day running of the lab. I have more of a "supporting" role in the Karatan lab. I spend all of my time in the lab and provide moral support to the students. I came to the lab with a former grad student, Josiah Zayner. Josiah is long gone, but I stayed behind at Ece's request. Since then I have been the sole source of company, amusement, and consolation to numerous graduate and undergraduate students especially during late nights and weekends. Ece may be running this lab, but I am the heart and soul of the Karatan lab.
