Professor Dr. Kemal Polat graduated from the Electrical-Electronics Engineering Department at Selcuk University with a B.Sc. degree in 2002 and from the Electrical-Electronics Engineering Department at Selcuk University with an M.Sc. degree in 2004. I completed my Ph.D. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Selcuk University in 2008. I completed my post-doctoral degree in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Houston between 2015 and 2016. In my post-doctoral work, I designed mathematical modeling of memory performance by designing various experiments on visual memory. I am now working as a Professor in the Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department, Engineering of Faculty, Bolu Abant Izzet Baysal University, since September 2011.
I have 190 articles published in SCI journals and 80 international conference papers. My research interests include biomedical signal classification, control systems, electronics, statistical signal processing, visual memory, neuroscience, brain-computer interface, PPG signal, medical electronics, digital signal processing, pattern recognition, and classification. My Google h-index is 53. Dr. Polat is the associate editor of the Information Sciences at Elsevier (IF: 8.223). Dr. Polat has been the associate editor of the Chaos, Solitons, and Fractals at Elsevier (IF: 9.922) since 2022. I served as a BİDEB Advisory Board member in TUBITAK between 2020 and 2022.

Prof. Dr. Oliver Gailing is Chair of the Department of Forest Genetics and Forest Tree Breeding at the University of Göttingen. He received the Diploma degree in Biology in 1994 from the University of Bochum and the Ph.D. degree in Plant Genetics from the University of Halle-Wittenberg, Germany, in 2000. In 2009, he was granted the venia legendi for Forest Genetics from the University of Göttingen. From 2009 to 2017 he was a Professor for Forest Genetics at Michigan Technological University, United States. Since 2017 he is Professor and Department Chair of Forest Genetics and Forest Tree Breeding at the University of Göttingen. He is also Honorary Professor at the Transsilvania University of Brasov, Romania (since 2018) and adjunct Professor at Michigan Technological University (since 2017). His research program focuses on population genetic of forest trees and on the study of evolutionary forces acting on plant populations and species during their history and on the evolution of adaptive and species-specific characters. Specifically, genetic structures and their spatial and temporal dynamics have been analysed in natural forest ecosystems based on molecular genetic markers. Dr. Gailing has coordinated and participated in numerous national and international projects (EVOLTREE, Hardwood Genomics, Sustainable energy pathways, IMPAC: Novel genotypes for mixed cropping, Barcoding sequences for community phylogenies). His research activities are documented in more than 200 peer-reviewed journal publications.
