Opening the event, Duke-NUS Governing Board member Professor Ivy Ng lauded these clinicians as the lifeblood of the SingHealth Duke-NUS AMC: “You all come from different specialities but have a strong common passion for pushing the boundaries of academic excellence. You deliver exceptional care and touch the lives of your patients and all the teams that you lead. You are inspiring role models and mentors.”
Before the Master Academic Clinicians went on stage to receive their awards from Duke-NUS Governing Board Chairman Mr Goh Yew Lin, they shared some valuable takeaways from their academic medicine journey in a video.
The video also featured Duke-NUS Dean Professor Thomas Coffman, who extended his heartfelt congratulations to the winners: “The unwavering commitment of these Master Academic Clinicians to their patients is critical to propelling our AMC to greater heights as they translate ideas into innovations. I am confident that their footprints will guide generations of clinicians to come so that together, we will continue to transform medicine and improve lives.”
