The 5th Duke-NUS Dialogue:
Healthcare Transformation - Innovations for our Future
The 5th Duke NUS Alumni Dialogue was successfully organised on 30 November 2018. We were honoured to have Prof Tan Chorh Chuan (Chief Health Scientist, Executive Director, Ministry of Health Office of Healthcare Transformation, Ministry of Health) as the guest speaker for the evening. Founding Duke-NUS Governing Board Chairman and Honorary DNMA member, Mr Tony Chew and Dr Melanie Chew kindly hosted the event. More than 70 guests comprising alumni, students, faculty and senior leaders were present at the Dialogue which was preceded by a buffet dinner.
Themed "Healthcare Transformation - Innovations for our Future", the dialogue covered a wide spectrum of engaging issues, from the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare especially in diagnostic medicine to the application of AI for the improvement of patient care (the future of self-health management). Prof Tan shared with the group updates from NHGP's Telecare and CGH's Telehealth programmes, two cutting edge instances of how technology could be harnessed to support home care self-monitoring with support from care managers.
The evening wistfully culminated with many happy smiles.

Special thanks to the DNMA Committee members for organising the Dialogue and hosting tables at the event and to the following alumni leaders who facilitated this Dialogue:
  • Dr Maverick Uy, Class of 2013, President of Duke-NUS Alumni Association
