"What motivated me to join Duke-NUS was my curiosity about what research and development (R&D) would be like in a healthcare setting.  Duke-NUS also has a special advantage with its close proximity to SGH and the opportunities that arise from this setting. 

For people contemplating a clinician-scientist track, you are at the right place here.  By performing R&D in a healthcare setting, there is a genuine chance that our work directly impacts the well-being of patients of the future. I was particularly impressed by the multidisciplinary groups that work together on research.  

What's unique about Duke-NUS is the level of integration between basic research and the clinical sciences. Here, there is a lot of collaboration between teams of basic research scientists and clinicians."
