26 March 2015 - Class of 2013 Reunion Dinner
Two years after graduation, 19 alumni from the MD class of 2013 gathered at Beirut Grill on 26 March 2015 in a rare reunion of old classmates. Such reunions are few and far between as doctors often have hectic and busy schedules. Dr Padmastuti Akella, who was the main organiser for the reunion, is determined to continue to organise such gatherings every month. "The point of it is to start a class tradition. They all know that it's going to be a casual dinner, even if there are just four people it still counts as a gathering."
Keeping up with old classmates is especially important as busy schedules often leave little to no time for them to catch up with one another. As such, the Duke-NUS Alumni Relations Office supports and provides sponsorship for such gatherings.
If you are keen on seeking sponsorship for a class reunion, please contact the Alumni Relations Office at alumni@duke-nus.edu.sg. |

27 March 2015 - Inaugural PhD Alumni Networking Dinner
The Duke-NUS Alumni Relations Office organised an inaugural PhD alumni networking dinner on 27 March 2015 to build stronger connections among our alumni and students.
With a total of 14 PhD, MD, MD/PhD alumni and students gathered at d'Good Café, it was certainly a hearty gathering. Interacting and bonding over dinner, they also had the added bonus of learning more about how the professional networking site LinkedIn can help them in their career paths. Two guest speakers from LinkedIn presented and shared invaluable tips and insights with the participants.

29 June 2015 - Internal Medicine Alumni Group's First Annual Dinner
New friendships and bonds were forged as the SingHealth's Chief IM Resident and 15 Duke-NUS internal medicine residents gathered to meet over dinner for the first time on 29 June 2015.
The group leader, Dr Ignasius Jappar, plans to have such gatherings on a more regular basis (twice a year or so). In addition, buddy groups comprising alumni from different years will be formed to allow small group mentoring. The dinner also included the residency briefing for the incoming House Officers.
The Duke-NUS Alumni Relations Office will be working with the group to do a similar briefing/dinner event next year, but at an earlier time for the incoming IM residents.
