About Us

The Academic Health Education Foundation (AHEF) is not just about producing knowledge in the field of health; it is the name of a journey that aims to transform scientific education into social benefit with an approach that centers science, conscience, and humanity.

AHEF was established with a vision prioritizing commitment to ethical values, scientific merit, and public benefit. We aim to disseminate the most current knowledge and scientific accumulation in the field of health not only to central institutions but also in ways that touch the lives of every young person, every patient, and every citizen.

As a foundation, our goal is to train and support scientists who stand out not only with their academic achievements but also with their conscience, responsibility, and human-centered perspective.

Our distinguished academic staff, who are experts in various disciplines of medicine, have internalized a multidisciplinary work culture, and are pioneers in their fields, are the strongest guarantee of AHEF's idealistic journey from knowledge production to social benefit. This strong human resource ensures that our foundation not only limits itself to education but also becomes an institution that leads high-quality collaborations, develops solution-oriented scientific projects, and makes a difference in the field of health.

Being the voice of individuals suffering from rare, complex, and difficult-to-treat diseases; revealing the academic potential of disadvantaged youth; and pushing boundaries through scientific collaborations are among our priorities.

AHEF aims to bring together Turkey's accumulation in the field of health sciences with the world through a strong national network and a respected international cooperation platform.

AHEF considers it its duty to represent a scientific conscience that reaches the unseen, forgotten, or unreached segments of society. Because we see science not only in laboratories but as a value that stands by people at their most vulnerable moments, in the very heart of life, giving them strength and hope.
