Rezzan was born in Antakya, Turkey on November 02, 1982. She took her B.S. degree from Koc University Physics Department in 2005. During her undergraduate years, she joined various projects in Optics and Photonics under supervisee of Prof. Serpenguzel and Prof. Sennaroglu. Currently she has been working in Prof. Koser's Group in MEMS design and characteristic project.

Rezzan's research centers around the dynamics of nonmagnetic particles immersed in a ferrofluid. Ferrofluis are colloidal suspensions of magnetic particles in a liquid either aqueous or oil. When non-magnetic particles are suspended in a carrier ferrofluid, they acquire an induced magnetic moment which is equal (and opposite) to the magnetic moment of the magnetic fluid volume they displace. A magnetic field applied externally results in a nonzero magnetic field gradient which is actually responsible for the dynamics of nonmagnetic particles. In a flowing fluid, simultaneous action of the magnetic and hydrodynamic forces are responsible for the dynamics of particles.
