Mükrime Gok
Mükrime graduated from Istanbul Medipol University, Department of Child Development, with an honorary student diploma in 2021. Her thesis was titled “An Examination of Psychological Well-Being Levels of Adolescents Aged 14-18.”
During her voluntary internships, she observed the typical and atypical development of children in kindergartens, as well as in special education and rehabilitation centres.
She later worked in a special education and rehabilitation centre with children who required developmental support, including those with autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome, developmental delays, cerebral palsy, learning difficulties, and intellectual disabilities. In this role, she aimed to improve support programs in five main areas of development—cognitive, speech and language, fine and gross motor skills, social and emotional, and self-care—for typically and atypically developing children aged 0-18 years. She also provided developmental assessments, evaluations, and family counselling.
At the BabyDevLab, Mükrime analyzed behavioural data from various projects, coded data in MATLAB, and supported social media operations.
