Biographical details

Dr. Richard Tan leads a multidisciplinary bioengineering research group of immunobiologists and engineers in the School of Medical Sciences at the University of Sydney. He completed his Bachelors in Biomedical Engineering program in the U.S at the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2008 earning a Presidential Undergraduate Research Award. He then went on to work for 5 years in Immunology at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research before completing his PhD in Immunomodulatory Biomaterials at the Heart Research Institute in 2019. He has spearheaded a multidisciplinary research effort with leading interventional cardiologist Prof Martin Ng, Royal Prince Alfred Hopsital vascular surgeon Dr. David Robinson, bioengineering scientist/Heart Foundation fellow A/Prof Steven Wise, and industry partner Endoluminal Sciences Pty Ltd. to develop a new endovascular device for the targeted delivery of immunotherapies to treat vascular disease. The quality and translational capacity of his research program is evidenced by recent funding success with the NSW Health EMCR Cardiovascular Research Capacity Scheme, Cardiovascular Initiative, and Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

Current projects
