By mid of November, I left my job after working two years at TUBITAK UEKAE. I worked with one of the best Open Source teams in Turkey and led Pardus Security Team, therefore I am a bit sad about leaving that early..

Fortunately, the reason for leaving my job leads me closer to my dreams: I have been selected as a Fulbright Ph.D. fellow and hopefully, I am going to continue my education in USA next year. As I am currently doing my master degree at Computer Engineering Department, Bogazici University, I had to give my full energy and time to finish my education in Turkey, so I decided to contribute Pardus as a non-TUBITAK employee. >>

Therefore, I will continue my career in Perceptual Intelligence Lab. at Bogazici University and continue work on my master thesis with Prof. Ethem Alpaydin on Machine Learning.

I also would like to thank to all of my colleagues who supported me to apply for Fulbright fellowship and to take the right decisions for my career. Everything is gonna be awesome! =]
