Nothing motivates Ilkin Isler \u201922MS \u201925PhD<\/strong> quite like this phrase: \u201cIt can\u2019t be done.\u201d<\/p>\n

When Isler says candidly, \u201cWorking on my Ph.D. is the most difficult thing I’ve ever faced,” there\u2019s a montage of difficult things in her life to consider \u2014 physical and mental, past and present.<\/p>\n

For example, in August 2025, the recent computer science doctoral graduate<\/a> began work as a senior artificial intelligence<\/a> (AI) engineer at Universal Creative. Her role involved analyzing complex white papers and developing state-of-the-art AI systems from scratch \u2014 all for the purpose of improving the safety of park guests.<\/p>\n

\u201cI find solutions for high-risk applications,\u201d Isler says, \u201cwhich is a good description for what I love to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

“… when I hear something can\u2019t be done, it motivates me to make it happen.” \u2014 Ilkin Isler \u201922MS \u201925PhD<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The fact that her work requires fortitude also fits Isler well. In high school in Turkey, she once walked into a gym \u201cjust for something to do.\u201d A trainer immediately suggested she head to the cardio area, where she\u2019d blend in easily. Isler, however, saw the powerlifting space and thought, \u201cThat\u2019s<\/em> what I want to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI had to teach myself how to do [powerlifting],\u201d she says. \u201cPeople probably thought I\u2019d give up, but when I hear something can\u2019t be done, it motivates me to make it happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Self-taught and competing despite her small frame, Isler went on to become a European powerlifting champion.<\/p>\n

All of this is important for understanding the person who, while studying at UCF, helped develop an AI model to assess cancerous tumors.<\/p>\n

Using Computer Imaging to Enhance Patient Care<\/h2>\n

Guided by a team of advisors, Isler came up with a way to feed medical imaging into an algorithm that measures shapes and textures with more speed, precision and consistency than is currently possible. Given such accurate information, an oncologist could make quicker, more confident decisions \u2014 improving overall patient care.<\/p>\n

“… [Ilkin’s] work helps push the field forward in an important and timely way.” \u2014 David Mohaisen, UCF computer science professor<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThe problem she chose to work on is inherently difficult for several reasons,\u201d says David Mohaisen, UCF computer science professor and one of her advisors. \u201cMedical imaging is a high-stakes domain where errors have serious clinical consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s also a mature and crowded research area, with competitive works focusing on incremental benchmark gains rather than addressing deeper issues, such as reliability, uncertainty and clinical integration,\u201d Mohaisen continues. \u201cInstead of chasing marginal improvements, Ilkin focused on meaningful outcomes. Her work helps push the field forward in an important and timely way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yet the breakthrough alone, and the work that went into it, does not fully capture what Isler faced at the dizzying start of her doctorate journey.<\/p>\n

Taking a Chance to Change Her Life and Others<\/h2>\n

Isler arrived from Turkey with two suitcases and a hotel reservation near UCF.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mom filled one of the suitcases with Turkish food,\u201d Isler says. She can laugh now, but at the time, she had no clear path beyond the airport. \u201cI had to figure everything out.\u201d<\/p>\n

A few years earlier, she traveled across the globe to UCF as an undergraduate, having earned a competitive internship in the Synthetic Reality Lab, where she worked with Pegasus Professor Charles Hughes and then computer engineering<\/a> doctoral student Kamran Ali \u201921PhD<\/strong> on facial expression recognition.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe committed herself to the research,\u201d Hughes says, \u201cand even contributed to writing and editing the resulting report after she returned to Turkey.\u201d<\/p>\n

Days away from starting doctorate-level research, with all her belongings in a single piece of luggage, Isler would do what she does best: find a way. She moved from the hotel to an unfurnished apartment.<\/p>\n

But with her, Isler brought two specific interests to her postgraduate research at UCF. Her mother, a dentist in Turkey, inspired an interest in medical advancement. Her father, a computer science professor, recognized in his daughter the curiosity and determination required for the field.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I know an idea can be impactful, I\u2019ll do whatever is necessary to make it a reality,\u201d she says. \u201cThe higher the stakes, the more driven I become.\u201d<\/p>\n

Those stakes led her to focus on medical imaging solutions for cancer care worldwide. Without a medical background, she collaborated with doctors. It helped that she never looked at her research as an academic exercise. She wanted only to deliver something trustworthy that clinicians everywhere could use to eliminate gray areas in image analysis.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been fortunate to work with many doctoral students over the years, and Ilkin stands out on multiple levels,\u201d says Mohaisen, pointing out her motivation, energy and curiosity, before adding: \u201cI\u2019d say she is among the most driven.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fueled by Challenge and Service<\/h2>\n

By now, the source of Isler\u2019s uncommon drive is clear. Every time someone showed skepticism about her powerlifting, she responded by breaking a national record. Although she could have attended a private college in Turkey, where she would have been surrounded by familiar language and culture, she instead chose to move across the world to study AI.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s one more motivation that consistently guides her: others.<\/p>\n

Isler considers her greatest accomplishment in powerlifting to be the doors she helped open for others in Turkey to try any form of fitness they choose. And she says she would gladly move to another continent again, with just a suitcase and her AI skills, if it meant helping improve the lives of others.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I look back, I can see that I\u2019ve often traded comfort for growth,\u201d she says, \u201cand I will not hesitate to do it again.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
