Welcome Duke-NUS faculty members! I am delighted to welcome you to our academic family, where we are engaged in pursuing the vision of transforming medicine and improving lives. Since Duke-NUS was established in 2005, we have come a long way, establishing our School as a beacon of excellence in medical education and biomedical research. Our academic clinical faculty have played a major role in the School’s progression and you represent the lifeblood of the world-class SingHealth Duke-NUS Academic Medical Centre. Duke-NUS is very grateful for these contributions to our growth and accomplishments. In turn, we are here to support our clinical faculty as they pursue careers combining education, research and clinical care, all focused on addressing the healthcare needs of Singapore. You are now a part of the team working together collaboratively, with commitment, and determination, to achieve our goal of shaping the future of medicine.

The Duke-NUS Office of Academic and Clinical Development is here to support you in all of your academic pursuits. I wish you a productive and fulfilling career journey with Duke-NUS.
