She earned her Ph.D. in Botany from the University of Khartoum, Sudan. Her academic expertise encompasses plant and soil sciences, medicinal plants, phytochemistry, and plant molecular biology. As Principal Contact for the Journal of the Faculty of Science and Technology, she plays a key role in disseminating research from her faculty. Professor Eltahir's scholarly contributions focus on morpho-anatomical studies, pharmacognostical analyses, and evaluations of Sudanese medicinal plants, including their antibacterial properties and potential for green synthesis of nanoparticles.

Her prolific publication record includes 1 book, 2 chapters, and 26 articles. Notable works are 'Physicochemistry and preliminary phytochemistry of leaves of some Sudanese medicinal plants' (2019, with E.M.A. Mustafa), 'Pharmacognostical study of the fruit peels of Punica granatum' (2019, with R.Y.A. Diab), 'Proximate composition of Moringa oleifera Lam. from different regions in Sudan' (2018, with S.Y. Mohammed et al.), 'Morph-anatomical studies and antibacterial activities of the Rhizome of Zingiber officinale Roscoe' (2018, with M.I. Elnoor et al.), 'Comparative study of anatomy of Eucalyptus microtheca and Eucalyptus camaldulensis leaves' (2018, with H.H. Elkamali et al.), 'Morpho-anatomical study of seven plants from the sub class (Asteridae)' (2018, with M.M. Abdalla and H.H. El-Kamali), 'Comparative anatomical study of some Acacia taxa seeds grown in central Sudan' (2017, with E.M.A. Mustafa and H.H. Alkamali), 'Comparative morph-anatomical studies on selected Sudanese medicinal plants: Part IV. Abutilon figarianum and Abutilon pannosum leaves' (2017, with M.E.E. Ali and H.H. Elkamali), 'Comparative anatomical study of the stems and leaflets of Tribulus longipetalous, T. pentandrus and T. terrestris (Zygophyllaceae)' (2016, with H.H. Elkamali et al.), 'Comparative morph-anatomical leaf characters of Nerium oleander and Catharanthus roseus family (Apocynaceae)' (2016, with M.M. Abdalla and H.H. El-Kamali), 'Microscopical studies on the leaf and petiole of Vernonia amygadlina Del.' (2011, with B.I. AbuEReish), 'Comparative morphological and anatomical studies of the barks of three Albizzia species' (2010, with B.I. AbuReish), 'Comparative foliar epidermal studies in Cymbopogon citratus and Cymbopogon schoenanthus in Sudan' (2010, with B.I. AbuReish), 'Leaf and stem anatomy of Cymbopogon citratus and Cymbopogon schoenanthus in Sudan' (2010, with B.I. AbuEReish), and 'Pharmacognostical studies on the leaves of Guiera senegalensis' (2009, with B.I. AbuEReish). These studies highlight her impact on understanding Sudanese flora's anatomical features, phytochemical constituents, and therapeutic potentials.
