Quick facts
Every Personify student works one-on-one with a specialist like Caden — not a generalist tutor.
Caden Tan
Research Mentor — Biomedical Engineering (Johns Hopkins)
Caden is a Biomedical Engineering student at Johns Hopkins University, drawn to the intersection of engineering and healthcare — specifically biotechnology, medical devices, and tissue engineering.
He is an Undergraduate Researcher at the JHU Whiting School of Engineering, working in Shinuo Weng's Tissue Morphogenesis & Mechanics Lab (using tools like ImageJ and MATLAB), and a Biomedical Research Intern at Berkeley Pharma Tech. He also serves as an Impact Database Researcher for the Pump Avenue Foundation.
Before college, Caden spent nearly four years in the MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement) program as a Project Lead and Secretary — building hands-on skills in laser cutting, soldering, and CAD — and taught abacus and mental arithmetic. His top skills include team leadership, product design, computer-aided design, and 3D printing, making him a strong mentor for students pursuing biomedical, engineering, or research projects.
