Thomas Tüting was born on January 31, 1962. He completed his medical doctorate at Goethe University Frankfurt in 1993, following his medical degree in 1987 from the University of Frankfurt School of Medicine. After his medical studies, Tüting gained early career experience as an Airforce Medical Officer before undertaking residency in Dermatology and Allergic Diseases at Military Hospital Koblenz and the University of Mainz from 1991 to 1995. He furthered his scientific training with postdoctoral research at the University of Pittsburgh in the United States from 1995 until 1997, focusing on tumor immunology and gene therapy. He received his board certification in Dermatology and Allergic Diseases from the University of Mainz in 1998.
From 1998 to 2001, Tüting worked as a clinical instructor and research scientist at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. His career progressed with an appointment as Associate Professor of experimental dermatology at the University of Bonn, a position he held from 2002 until 2015, where he also carried out clinical work in general and oncologic dermatology. During this period, he conducted significant research into the role of UV irradiation and the immune system in melanoma pathogenesis, melanoma metastasis, and therapy resistance. His work involved preclinical and clinical evaluation of immunotherapies and developing genetic mouse models to study inflammation-induced phenotypic plasticity within melanoma.
Since October 2015, Thomas Tüting has served as the Director (Professor and Chairman) of Dermatology at the University Hospital Magdeburg and leads the Laboratory of Experimental Dermatology. His current research interests include identifying factors responsible for cancer progression, metastasis, and resistance to cancer immunotherapy. Tüting has been recognized for his contributions to dermatological research through several awards, including the Memorial Prize of the Erich Hoffmann Society Bonn (2000), the Translational Research Award of the AG Dermatological Research (2006), the Steigleder-Award of the Dermatological Histology (2009), the German Skin Cancer Award (2014), the Arnold Rikli Prize (2014), and the Roche Posay Photodermatology Research Award (2015). He was also a member of the Board of the Dermatological Research Society (ADF) from 2013 to 2017.
