== Education and career ==
Tiller studied at the University of Toronto and obtained his B.A.Sc. in 1952 with a degree in Engineering Physics. He also obtained M.A.Sc. and a Ph.D. degrees from the same university. Altogether, he worked nine years as an advisory physicist with the Westinghouse Research Laboratories and 34 years in academia.<ref name="tillerbio">[http://www.tillerfoundation.com/biography.php Biography of William A.

From 1964 to 1992 William A. Tiller was a professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Stanford University, and during this time he held the position of department chairman from 1966 to 1971. In 1992 he became Professor Emeritus. He was also associate editor for the ''Journal of Holistic Medicine''.<ref>[http://www.spiritofmaat.com/archive/mar2/tiller1.htm Interview with William A.

== Work ==
Tiller gained his academic reputation for his work in the field of [[crystallization]].

He has also worked on theories that are conventionally far less accepted. The professor of psychology and parapsychology [[Jon Klimo]] highlights Tiller's notion that humans can tune in and filter incoming signals from further dimensions.<ref>''Channeling: Investigations on Receiving Information from Paranormal Sources'', [[North Atlantic Books]], Second Edition 1998, ISBN 978-1556432484, [http://books.google.com/books?id=w7R7xyB0T80C&pg=PA336 p. 336]</ref>

== Film participation ==
Tiller appears in the film ''[[What the Bleep Do We Know!?]]''<ref name="whatthebleep">[http://www.whatthebleep.com/scientists/#Tiller William Tiller, Ph.D.]</ref>, a film which been criticized for both misrepresenting [[science]] and containing [[pseudoscience]] and has been described as [[quantum mysticism]].
