==Education==
Prof. Tamir Tuller earned his bachelor's degree via the [[Atuda]] in 1992. He finished four degrees (most of them from Tel Aviv University): BSc in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering (aerodynamics), computer science, and economics and management.
His graduate studies include an MSc in electrical engineering (from the [[Technion Israel Institute of Technology|Technion-Israel Institute of Technology]] in Haifa, Israel, MSc studies in computer science at Tel Aviv University, and two PhDs from Tel Aviv University, one in computer science and one in medical science.

He was a Safra postdoctoral fellow at Tel Aviv University's School of Computer Science and Department of Molecular Microbiology and Biotechnology, and a Koshland postdoctoral fellow at the Weizmann Institute of Science's Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, Department of Molecular Genetics.

He joined Tel Aviv University's Department of Biomedical Engineering in 2011 and on 2018 he became a full professor.

Prof. Tamir Tuller does interdisciplinary research on [[gene expression]] based on various tools from disciplines such as computer science, engineering, molecular evolution, biophysics, and statistics. He is particularly interested in developing novel ways for modelling and engineering gene expression, as developing approaches for better understand how gene expression is encoded in the genetic material. His gene expression models are then used for solving various objective in biotechnology and pharma such as vaccine development, human diseases modeling, food tech, and antibody engineering.
