Biography

Osman Adiguzel graduated from Department of Physics, Ankara University, Turkey in 1974 and received PhD- degree from Dicle University, Diyarbakir Turkey. He studied at Surrey University, Guildford, UK, as a postdoctoral research scientist in 1986-1987, and his studies focused on shape memory alloys. He worked as a research assistant, 1975-80, at Dicle University and shifted to Firat University in 1980. He became a professor in 1996, and he has already been working as a professor. He published over 50 papers in international and national journals. He joined over 100 conferences and symposia in international and national level as a participant, invited a speaker or keynote speaker with contributions. He served the program chair or conference chair and co-chair in some of these activities. In particular, he joined in last four years (2014 - 2018) over 50 conferences as Speaker, Keynote Speaker and Conference Co-Chair organized by South Asian Institute of Science and Engineering (SAISE),Science and Engineering Institute (SCIEI),International Association of Computer Science and Information Technology,The Academic World Education and Research Center (AWER-Center),and other institutes and companies. Adiguzel served his directorate of Graduate School of Natural and Applied Sciences, Firat University in 1999-2004. He supervised 5 PhD- theses and 3 M.Sc theses. He is also Technical committee member of many conferences. He received a certificate which is being awarded to him and his experimental group in recognition of the significant contribution of 2 patterns to the Powder Diffraction File Release 2000. The ICDD (International Centre for Diffraction Data) also appreciates the cooperation of his group and interest in Powder Diffraction File.
