Serpil Kiokekli is a MSc candidate at the Materials Science and Technology Department at University of Crete, Greece. She received her BS degree in Chemistry Department from the same University in 2019. Her BS thesis included the use of bioinformatic tools for studying the mechanism of enzymatic hydrolysis in silico. During her undergraduate internship at the Ultrafast Laser Micro- and Nano- Processing Group (IESL-FORTH), she trained on the ultrafast laser setup for designing various shapes on hard and soft materials, on the “Perforation of intraocular medical lenses with ultrafast laser pulses” project. Her current interests include research on the parameters that affect the colloidal nanocrystal shapes and, specifically, the morphology of  perovskites in the form of clusters.
