Reference excerpt

Selahattin Özmen is a Turkish plastic surgeon and a full professor of plastic surgery at the Koç University School of Medicine, department of plastic surgery and American Hospital Department of Plastic Surgery in İstanbul. he performed Turkey's third face transplant in 2012 at Gazi University / Ankara.

Education After graduating from the faculty of medicine at the Hacettepe University, he completed his special studies in plastic and reconstructive surgery between 1995 and 2002 at the Gazi University, Department of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, between 2002 and 2003 at The Cleveland Clinic Foundation in Cl/Ohio/USA, in 2004 at Sahlgrenska Akademin in Gothenburg, Sweden and in 2006 in Hamburg, Germany.

Achievements Selahattin Özmen performed Turkey's third face transplant, first woman-to-woman and first three-dimensional (with bone tissue), face transplant, a partial face transplant, on March 17, 2012 on Hatice Nergis, a twenty-year-old woman, at Gazi University's hospital in Ankara. The patient from Kahramanmaraş had lost six years ago her upper jaw including mouth, lips, palate, teeth and nasal cavity by a firearm accident, and was since then unable to eat. She had undergone in the past around 35 reconstructive plastic surgery operations. The donor was a 28-year-old woman in Istanbul, who committed suicide.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Selahattin Özmen

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Selahattin Özmen claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Selahattin Özmen before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Selahattin Özmen ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Selahattin Özmen

In research: Selahattin Özmen appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Selahattin Özmen in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Selahattin Özmen is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 21st-century Turkish medical doctors, 21st-century surgeons, Academic staff of Gazi University, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Selahattin Özmen outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
