Michael Lim Tan (born 1952) is a Filipino medical anthropologist, veterinarian, and writer who is currently a professor at the University of the Philippines Diliman (UP Diliman) College of Social Sciences and Philosophy.^[3] Tan served as the chancellor of UP Diliman from 2014 to 2020.

Prior to his appointment as UPD chancellor, Tan was already well known for his work among non-governmental organizations in the Philippines, and for his column Pinoy Kasi, which appears twice a week in the Philippine Daily Inquirer.

On February 27, 2014, the University of the Philippines Board of Regents appointed Tan to serve as the chancellor of the University of the Philippines Diliman,^[4] where he was serving as Dean of the College of Social Sciences and Philosophy (CSSP). Tan initially served as Chancellor from March 1, 2014, to February 28, 2017, then a second term that lasted until March 1, 2020 when the Board of Regents reappointed him.^[4]^[5] ^[6]^[7]

Tan has authored numerous books and articles, often focusing on: indigenous medical beliefs, sex and sexuality, reproductive and sexual health (particularly HIV/AIDS), pharmaceuticals, and health policy issues.^[8]^[9]^[10]
