Insomnia Gene, Turkey's invention was among the best discoveries. Working on Genetics at Bilkent University, Prof. Dr. Özçelik The insomnia gene that found attracted great attention. In addition, the insomnia gene has managed to be among the best discoveries in the world. The fact that the study conducted in Turkey has an important place in the world literature was among the developments confirmed by many news agencies. This study, carried out at Bilkent University, was officially included in the "2017 World's Best Inventions" list by the science journal Cell. The report prepared regarding the study included in the list was another remarkable point. In addition, the authorities made a detailed explanation on the subject, evaluated the invention and conveyed their notes.
According to the statement made by Cell, it was stated that the insomnia gene discovery was analyzed in detail and all details were examined. It has been confirmed that the insomnia gene, which is prof. Dr. Özçelik's invention, is based on 8 years of research and that this gene was revealed as a result of 8 years of work. prof. Dr. Özçelik and Prof. Dr. Michael Young As a result of studies carried out in partnership with, the insomnia gene was discovered. At the same time, this gene opened the door to many inventions. However, even the fact that the insomnia gene was included in the list of the best inventions at the first stage revealed what an important breakthrough Turkey has made in science. Due to the studies carried out at Bilkent University, the name of the university began to appear in many services.
Advances in the Discovery of the Insomnia Gene
The invention of the insomnia gene emerged as a result of the changes experienced after the mutations in Cryptochrome 1, the gene that creates the biological clock, disrupted the biological rhythm. Thus, changes in CRY1 are among the factors that directly affect sleep patterns. It has been confirmed that people who carry the gene that causes insomnia, colloquially known as "night owl", feel like they are constantly experiencing jet lag, but they are not ready to meet the new day.
The first studies of the insomnia gene were carried out by Prof. Dr. Aziz Sancar put it forward. Aziz Sancar had described his gene-related research with bacteria. In the next period, Prof. Dr. Michael Young had studied the effect of the basic mechanism of biological rhythm on fruit flies. With his invention as a result of this examination, Prof. Dr. Michael Young won the Nobel Prize in Medicine. On top of these developments, the insomnia gene was investigated and more comprehensive studies were put forward.
prof. Dr. Özçelik evaluated the previous studies and made detailed analyzes on the subject for 8 years through the materials in his hand. Evaluating the data he obtained, Prof. Dr. Özçelik found the insomnia gene. Thus, it has signed an important success story in history. At the same time, many scientific journals have brought this study to the top as an example. The insomnia gene is one of the rare developments that are among the important discoveries.
