Visit by Nanopolis Suzhou and A*STAR

We were honoured to host a delegation from Nanopolis Suzhou at our facility within the NUS School of Medicine on 9 June. The visit was a great opportunity to exchange insights on translational research and advanced manufacturing strategies in both Singapore and China.

Joining the visit was Dr Shiyu Liu, PhD, Deputy Director at A*STAR – Agency for Science, Technology and Research Innovation & Enterprise, along with his colleagues, who shared an overview of A*STAR’s various research units and initiatives with the Chinese delegation. Also present were NUS principal investigators and researchers, who introduced their ongoing projects in additive manufacturing and biomedical applications, inspiring discussions around potential research collaboration and talent development.

We look forward to exploring opportunities for future collaboration!
