Доц. д-р Fatih Tufan е специалист по вътрешни болести и гериатър в Болницата на Медицинския факултет на Biruni University.
Завършва медицинското си образование (1996-2002), специализацията си по вътрешни болести (2002-2007) и профилната си специализация по гериатрия (2008-2012) в Истанбулския медицински факултет на Истанбулския университет.
След задължителната си служба в Държавна болница Çekirge (2012-2013) и Учебно-изследователска болница Şevket Yılmaz (2013-2014) заема длъжности като доцент в Медицинския факултет на Университета Uludağ (2014-2015), в Катедрата по геронтология на Факултета по здравни науки на Истанбулския университет (2014-2016) и в Отделението по гериатрия на Истанбулския медицински факултет на Истанбулския университет (2015-2016). По-късно работи в болница Medical Park Florya (2020-2024) и в болница Esenler Avicenna (2024-2025), преди да се присъедини към Biruni University.
Клиничните и научните му интереси включват гериатрична медицина, саркопения, здравословно стареене, крехкост, дефицит на витамин D, хипертония и диабет тип 2.
Той е автор на значителен брой научни трудове в международни рецензирани списания, включително публикации в Nature Communications, New England Journal of Medicine и BMJ, както и на глави в международни книги по гериатрична медицина. Член е на Академичната гериатрична асоциация.
