International Gender for Excellence in Research Conference Proceedings Part 1: Selected Papers and Abstracts June 18-19, 2022
(Media-Tryck, Lund University, 2023) Gonca Şahin; Selma Değirmenci; Lucia Amaranta Thompson; Tomas Brage; Sara Goodman; Mary Lou O'neil
This book represents one of the outcomes of the Gender for Excellence in Research EU project which seeks to promote the use of gender and gender theory in a range of disciplines amongst early-stage researchers (the academics of the future). Together the participants in this Early-Stage Research conference presented research from a variety of disciplines in the social sciences, humanities, natural and physical science. Their research through including gender as a concept and/or as a theoretical perspective, demonstrates how gender theory can contribute to expanding our understandings of different scientific phenomena. This project also appeals to the turn in academia towards interdisciplinarity knowledge production by challenging the ways in which knowledge is produced in different disciplines, including natural sciences. The editors of this book would like to thank all the conferences participants, the staff of the Gender and Women Studies Research Centre, Kadir Has University, Istanbul, and all the members of the GenderEx Team, for their contributions to the First Gender for Excellence in Research Conference.

International gender for excellence in research conference proceedings : International Gender for Excellence Research Conference 2 2023 Istanbul
(Nordic Swan Ecolabel, 2023) Selma Değirmenci; Lucia Amaranta Thompson; Tomas Brage; Sara Goodman; Mary Lou O'neil
This book is one of the outcomes of the Horizon 2020 EU project Gender for Excellence in Research (GenderEx). This project has promoted the awareness of gender amongst researchers and the application of gender theory across a range of disciplines. The present book consists of the proceedings from the Second International Gender for Excellence in Research Conference, in which research projects from a variety of disciplines were presented, including social sciences, humanities, engineering and physical sciences. The research demonstrates how gender theory can contribute to expanding scientific knowledge. This project also appeals to the turn in academia towards interdisciplinarity by challenging the ways in which academic knowledge is produced. The editors of this book would like to thank all of the conference participants, the staff of the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Research Group, Kadir Has University, Istanbul and all the members of the GenderEx Team, for their contributions to the Second Gender for Excellence in Research Conference. A special thanks to the gendersensitive language editor Liz Sourbut, and to Jonas Palm and his colleagues at the Media Tryck printing office of Lund University.

Mathematical models for phase transitions in biogels
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2019-03-30) Bilge, Ayşe Hümeyra; Öğrenci, Arif Selçuk; Pekcan, Önder
It has been shown that reversible and irreversible phase transitions of biogels can be represented by epidemic models. The irreversible chemical sol-gel transitions are modeled by the Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR) or Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) epidemic systems whereas reversible physical gels are modeled by a modification of the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS) system. Measured sol-gel and gel-sol transition data have been fitted to the solutions of the epidemic models, either by solving the differential equations directly (SIR and SEIR models) or by nonlinear regression (SIS model). The gel point is represented as the "critical point of sigmoid," defined as the limit point of the locations of the extreme values of its derivatives. Then, the parameters of the sigmoidal curve representing the gelation process are used to predict the gel point and its relative position with respect to the transition point, that is, the maximum of the first derivative with respect to time. For chemical gels, the gel point is always located before the maximum of the first derivative and moves backward in time as the strength of the activation increases. For physical gels, the critical point for the sol-gel transition occurs before the maximum of the first derivative with respect to time, that is, it is located at the right of this maximum with respect to temperature. For gel-sol transitions, the critical point is close to the transition point; the critical point occurs after the maximum of the first derivative for low concentrations whereas the critical point occurs after the maximum of the first derivative for higher concentrations.
Natural Gas Exploitation in the Eastern Mediterranean: A Holistic Approach
(Kadir Has University Center for Energy and Sustainable Development, 2023) Ediger, Volkan; Elfeky, Rahma; Karampalis, Dimitrios; Mengi, Hazal; Tan, Sadık Erkan; Bowlus, John Vincent; Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom’s Türkiye Office
Discoveries of significant natural gas reserves in the Eastern Mediterranean since 2010 have elevated the region’s geopolitical importance from being strictly based on security to one also based on energy and has thus drawn in outside powers that are eager to address their energy-supply security needs. The energy crises triggered first by the supply chain disruptions in 2021 and then the Russia-Ukraine War in 2022 have elevated the region’s importance as a potential energy supplier and transit hub for Europe. This report takes a holistic approach to critically assess the activities carried out in the Eastern Mediterranean region in the fields of exploration, discovery, development, production, and export of natural gas, and the delimitation of exclusive economic zones (EEZs), as well as the effects that these activities have on the economies, policies, and strategies of Eastern Mediterranean countries at the interstate, regional and global levels. Previous studies have generally evaluated the activities related to natural gas in the Eastern Mediterranean from narrow perspectives and only a very small number have dealt with all these elements considered together and with analysis of cause-and-effect relationships on a regional or global scale. The authors deploy a systemic approach that is similar to the petroleum system concept, which evaluates hydrocarbon generation, migration, accumulation, and entrapment in an entire petroleum system on the basis of its essential elements (sources, reservoirs, seals, and overburden rocks) and processes (trap formations and generation-migration-accumulation) as well as the preservation time and, most importantly, the critical moments when events are significant enough to affect the whole system. Likewise, this report uses qualitative and quantitative media analysis of six newspapers – two from Egypt, two from Greece, and two from Turkey from the first discovery of gas by Israel in 1999 to 2023 – to determine the critical moments that have brought what the authors term the Eastern Mediterranean gas exploitation system (EMGES) to a crossroads, where either conflict and confrontation or stability and cooperation will prevail. No one can predict when this system will be overwhelmed by the essential elements (the ten Eastern Mediterranean states), the essential processes (activities related to gas exploitation and delimitation of EEZs), and the critical moments (major conflict periods). This is rendered even more uncertain by a rapidly shifting geopolitical context that is being shaped by the energy transition from fossil fuels to clean energy sources as well as the transition from a unipolar to a multipolar world. Given how interconnected all these factors are, only a holistic approach can help illustrate how the EMGES has reached this crossroads. For stability and cooperation to prevail in EMGES, two conditions must be met. First, countries must recognize that they are directly interconnected and depend on one another and a common vision that balances the economic and strategic interests of each country to forge development and sustainability. Second, a robust cooperative structural framework must be developed that does not exclude any individual country and involves external powers, most notably the EU and the United States.

You Are What You Wear: Clothing/Appearance Laws and the Construction of the Public Citizen in Turkey
(Berg Publ, 2010) O'Neil, Mary Lou
As Turkey set its sights on modernization and Westernization in the early decades of the twentieth century, clothing reform took center stage. The state used clothing as a constitutive element in its establishment and continues to legislate appearance as a means to maintain its power and create a model public citizen that will support it. Today there exists an extensive regulatory regime on clothing and appearance in the public sphere, which induces those governed by it to dress in a "modern" fashion. An examination of these regulations reveals the deeply politicized nature of clothing in Turkey which is guided by the assumption that you are what you wear. While choice of clothing and appearance is neither entirely free nor fully prescribed, dress codes do further restrict already limited choices. Dress codes undermine the relationship thought to exist between individual belief and appearance. Dress codes, in the case of Turkey, are dictated by the state; therefore, the appearance of students and state employees does not necessarily represent their belief but that of the state. The Turkish state, through the use of dress codes, continues to try and produce "modern" citizens, meaning Western and secular.
