Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa Institute of Forensic Sciences and Legal Medicine | Turkey
Beril Anılanmert is an accomplished Turkish forensic scientist and analytical chemist, with dual doctorates: one in forensic sciences from Istanbul University, and another in analytical chemistry from Marmara University. She also holds an MSc and a BPharm from Marmara, with specialization in pharmacy and analytical methods. She is an Associate Professor at Istanbul University‑Cerrahpaşa in the Institute of Forensic Sciences, Department of Natural and Applied Sciences. Prior positions include associate professorship at Istanbul University, medical research positions in forensic medicine, assistant professorship in pharmacy, and earlier work as a research assistant. Her research has centered on development and validation of sensitive analytical techniques (especially LC‑MS/MS, HPLC, etc.) for detecting psychoactive substances, designer drugs, date‑rape drugs, explosive residues, and related toxicants in biological and environmental matrices. She has led multiple funded projects, published over 100 peer‑reviewed articles in high‑impact and SCI/SSCI journals, authored several book chapters, and contributed to laboratory accreditation and capacity building. Her work combines methodological rigor with strong applicability to forensic, public health, and legal challenges. She has published 107 items, with 167 citations in Web of Science (WoS), 182 in Scopus, and a WoS and Scopus h‑index of 7. These reflect modest citation counts relative to publication volume, but indicate a solid presence in her fields.
