Mert Kilickaya
Hello! I am an AI researcher working in AI for Science. My goal is to build autonomous agents that accelerate scientific discovery.
I currently focus on biomarker discovery. Previously, I worked on continual pre-training agents at Learning to Learn Lab, and I completed my PhD in deep learning at the QUvA Lab under Arnold Smeulders.
Beyond research, I enjoy creating visual memories whenever I can.
