Current Evaluation and Recommendations for the Use of Artificial Intelligence Tools in Education
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2023) Sagin, Ferhan Girgin; Özkaya, Ali Burak; Tengiz, Funda; Geyik, Öykü Gönül; Geyik, Caner
This paper discusses the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in education, delineating their potential to transform pedagogical practices alongside the challenges they present. Generative AI models like ChatGPT, had a disruptive impact on teaching and learning, due to their ability to create text, images, and sound, revolutionizing educational content creation and modification. However, nowadays the educational community is polarized, with some embracing AI for its accessibility and efficiency thus advocating it as an indispensable tool, while others cautioning against risks to academic integrity and intellectual development. This document is designed to raise awareness about AI tools and provide some examples of how they can be used to improve education and learning. From an educator's perspective, AI is an asset for curriculum development, course material preparation, instructional design and student assessment, while reducing bias and workload. For students, AI tools offer personalized learning experiences, timely feedback, and support in various academic activities. The Turkish Biochemical Society (TBS) Academy recommends educators to embrace and utilize AI tools to enhance educational processes, and engage in peer learning for better adaptation while maintaining a critical perspective on their utility and limitations. The transfer of AI knowledge and methods to the teaching experiences should complement and not replace the educator's creativity and critical thinking. The paper advocates for an informed embrace of AI, AI fluency among educators and students, ethical application of AI in academic settings, and continuous engagement with the evolving AI technologies, ensuring that AI tools are used to augment critical thinking and contribute positively to education and society.

Rapid Fibroblast Cell Culture Characterization With Impedimetric Label-Free Heat Shock Protein-47 Biosensor
(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, 2020) Harmancı, Duygu; Uygun, Zihni Onur; Sezgin, Ayse Kocak; Demirdover, Cenk; Sagin, Ferhan Girgin; Akdogan, Gul
In this study, for the first time in literature, an impedimetric biosensor technology was developed to determine Heat Shock Protein-47 (HSP-47) for the characterization of primary skin fibroblast cells. Gold nanoparticle electrodes (GNPE) were modified with amino-functionalized graphene oxide layers and anti-HSP-47 were immobilized on this layer. The performance of the biosensor was tested with real samples as cell lysates. The low detection limit (LOD) and the linear detection limit (LOQ) of the biosensor were calculated as 9.47 pg/mL and 3.23 pg/mL, respectively. Linear measurement range was obtained between 10-160 pg/mL HSP-47. The reproducibility of the biosensor was good.
