The setting up of the Lien Centre for Palliative Care is a dream come true for the palliative care community in Singapore. For the first time, real resources have been set aside for research and education. We endeavour to live up to the trust the Lien Foundation has put in us, to use these resources in generating and disseminating knowledge that has a real impact on the lives of our patients.
