Innate immunity TLR signaling Vaccine immunology
Top 3 Highlights:
- Pioneering innate immunity research in Turkey — Prof. Gürsel has made foundational contributions to understanding TLR (Toll-like receptor) signaling and innate immune responses, including the role of these pathways in infections and vaccine adjuvant development.
- Developed novel immunomodulatory strategies — His work on TLR agonists and antagonists has been widely cited for its implications in therapeutic immune modulation, vaccine enhancement, and autoimmunity research.
- Extensive scientific leadership & mentoring — With a strong publication record and leadership roles in immunology education and professional societies (e.g., Turkish Society for Immunology), he has shaped the next generation of immunologists in Turkey and beyond.
