About

Philip Tan is a pioneering biomedical engineer whose work sits at the intersection of wearable technology, neural interfaces, and advanced manufacturing. His most celebrated contribution is the development of on-scalp printed electroencephalography (EEG) e-tattoos, a breakthrough that replaces bulky, gel-based electrodes with ultra-thin, personalized, and comfortable electronic tattoos. This innovation, detailed in his 2025 paper which has already garnered 19 citations, promises to revolutionize long-term brain monitoring for epilepsy, sleep disorders, and brain-computer interfaces by dramatically improving signal quality and patient comfort. Tan’s research is notable for its focus on scalable, non-invasive fabrication techniques that make high-resolution neural recording accessible outside the clinic. His work bridges materials science and clinical neurology, and he is recognized for pushing the boundaries of how we interface electronics with the human body. With a growing citation record and a clear trajectory toward real-world impact, Philip Tan is a rising leader in the field of wearable bioelectronics.
