Prof. Dr. Gökalp Öner is a distinguished Turkish obstetrician, gynecologist, and reproductive endocrinologist recognized for his pioneering contributions to assisted reproductive technologies, artificial intelligence in medicine, and women’s health research. Born in Çorum in 1981, he demonstrated academic excellence from an early age, ranking among the top students nationally and graduating at the top of his class from Hacettepe Faculty of Medicine in 2005. He specialized in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Erciyes University, where his research began focusing on reproductive endocrinology, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, and in vitro fertilization (IVF). Prof. Öner has significantly advanced the integration of artificial intelligence into reproductive medicine, being the first in Turkey—and among the first globally—to develop AI-assisted embryo selection and uterine evaluation technologies, revolutionizing IVF success prediction and clinical decision-making. With over 1,089 citations, an h-index of 17, and an i10-index of 28, Prof. Öner’s scholarly impact is widely recognized. His prolific academic output includes over 100 publications and multiple high-impact studies on topics such as the efficacy of omega-3 in PCOS, the comparative effects of metformin and letrozole on endometriosis, and hormonal influences on ovarian reserve and fertility outcomes. He has received seven national scientific awards, authored two books, and serves as editor for 11 medical journals while directing the IVF Center at Kayseri System Hospital and serving as a professor at Istanbul Aydın University Faculty of Medicine. Prof. Öner’s interdisciplinary expertise bridges reproductive endocrinology, clinical gynecology, and AI-driven diagnostics, positioning him at the forefront of innovation in fertility science. His work continues to shape modern reproductive medicine through the application of intelligent technologies to enhance personalized treatment, improve pregnancy outcomes, and expand scientific understanding of female reproductive health.
