Dr. Ismail Devecioglu is a neuroscientist and biomedical engineer specializing in the somatosensory system. He earned his Master’s and PhD in Biomedical Engineering, with a research focus on the peripheral physiology of touch and intracortical tactile feedback mechanisms.

From 2017 to 2023, he served as an Assistant Professor in Türkiye, where he led research on sensory substitution systems for proprioceptive feedback in upper-limb prosthetics. In 2023, he joined the University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney) as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow and holds a conjoint researcher position at Neuroscience Research Australia (NeuRA).

Dr. Devecioglu’s current research investigates the physiology of touch and its role in motor control, including balance and locomotion. He also develops neural interfaces designed to restore sensory feedback in prosthetic devices. He supervises higher-degree research students from diverse backgrounds in biomedical sciences and engineering.
