Dr. Tıraş graduated from Ankara University Faculty of Medicine in 1984 and completed specialty training at Dr. Behçet Uz Pediatric Diseases Training and Research Hospital between 1986 and 1991, remaining at Dr. Behçet Uz Pediatric Diseases Training and Research Hospital from 1991 to 1994.

Two entries concern Saccharomyces boulardii in children, and further work addresses serum lipid levels in children aged 5 to 15 and a case of non-accidental ammonia poisoning in adolescence, the latter described in the entry as a case report of sorts within child health practice.
