For the second consecutive year, I am honoured to be ranked among the world’s top 2% most influential researchers and scientists in the 2026 Stanford–Elsevier global ranking. My sincere thanks to everyone who has supported me since day one, including my mentors, academic supervisors, collaborators, and many others.

On my way back from Europe, I had the great pleasure of visiting Prof. Dr. Murat Terzi, a dear friend, mentor, and highly respected visionary leader in neurology in Türkiye 🇹🇷. Professor Murat Terzi currently serves as President of the Turkish Neurological Society, Full Professor of Neurology, and Head of the Department of Neurology at Ondokuz Mayıs University Faculty of Medicine in Samsun, Türkiye 🇹🇷. Throughout his distinguished career, Professor Murat Terzi has demonstrated an exceptional commitment to mentoring, training, inspiring, and engaging young people in neurology and neuroscience across Türkiye and beyond. I have personally had the privilege of meeting him on several occasions at major and top international scientific gatherings in Finland, Switzerland, South Korea, the United States, and across Europe. Many thanks to Professor Murat Terzi for his great hospitality and for showing me his outstanding research work and ongoing clinical trials in the different advanced laboratories within his Department of Neurology and Neuroscience at the university hospital. Many thanks also to everyone I met there for their warm welcome and hospitality. It was truly wonderful to benefit once again from his invaluable mentorship, experience, and dedication to advancing neurology and neuroscience. I am also deeply grateful to Professor Murat Terzi for our inspiring discussions about future projects and collaborations that could strengthen neurological education, research, and care. Finally, I warmly invite all neurologists, neuroscientists, researchers, trainees, neurology residents, and other interested colleagues from Türkiye and around the world to submit their abstracts, attend, and present their work at the internationally attended 62nd National Neurology Congress, organized by the Turkish Neurological Society from 12–16 December 2026 at the Royal Seginus Hotel in Lara, Antalya, Türkiye. For more information about the 62nd National Neurology Congress, please visit the official website of the Turkish Neurological Society and follow them on social media platforms @NOROLOJI1992

I am incredibly grateful to have reached 3,000+ citations on Google Scholar, with an h-index of 34 and an i10-index of 86. I sincerely thank all my mentors, supervisors, collaborators, co-authors, colleagues, and everyone who has been part of this journey and supported me since day one. Thank you very much for your support, guidance, motivation, encouragement, and inspiration. Driven by my passion for research, I look forward to continuing to learn, grow through experience, and make an even greater impact in the years ahead.

I am deeply honored and grateful to be named to the TRIIBE 100, recognizing the world’s top next-generation nonprofit founders under 30. I am grateful to receive this recognition through my work as Founder and Chairman of Oli Health Magazine Organization (OHMO) @OliHealthOrg Many thanks to Maryam Rana, who interviewed me during the final 15-minute interview for the TRIIBE 100, described as a seal of credibility for nonprofit founders advancing tomorrow. My sincere gratitude to Kyle Matthys and the entire TRIIBE team for this recognition and for supporting the next generation of nonprofit founders around the world.

#INTERVIEW: As I highlighted in my recent interview with University World News, yes indeed, where you begin should not determine how far you can go. Scientific excellence is built on curiosity, perseverance, integrity, collaboration, and commitment, not on where you come from. Many thanks to journalist Clemence Manyukwe and the University World News @uniworldnews team for inviting me to this interview and for highlighting the 2026 H. Richard Tyler Award that I was honored to receive from the American Academy of Neurology @AANmember in Chicago, USA.

Geneva, Switzerland 🇨🇭: Honoured and humbled to spend time at CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research), the world’s leading laboratory for particle physics research. @CERN In 2018, at my very young age, someone gifted me a CERN flag. Back then, I dreamed that one day I would spend time at this extraordinary scientific institution. Today, in 2026, that dream has become a reality. Spending time at CERN, one of the world’s greatest scientific institutions, has been a truly inspiring experience, offering a glimpse into groundbreaking scientific discoveries and the spirit of international collaboration that advances knowledge for the benefit of humanity. My sincere gratitude to Switzerland 🇨🇭, and many thanks to the Swiss people for their exceptional hospitality, kindness, and warmth. This has been a truly unforgettable, enriching, and inspiring experience. MERCI BEAUCOUP POUR TOUT 🇨🇭❤️
