We are grateful for the visit of the Deputy Prime Minister, Coordinating Minister for Economic Policies, and Chairman, NRF, Heng Swee Keat to the Cancer Science Institute of Singapore (CSI Singapore) on Monday. It was an extraordinary occasion where we showcased cutting-edge cancer research.
During the visit, we showcased our state-of-the-art High-End Automated Cell Explorer platform, enabling high-throughput screenings of drug-protein interactions, as well as our Quantitative Proteomics Core. These revolutionary technologies accelerate the discovery of novel cancer therapeutics, bringing us closer to more effective treatments. Director Prof. Ashok Venkitaraman of CSI Singapore and our faculty members shared their insights into cancer cell behaviour and treatment responses.
A highlight was meeting our inspiring PhD students and research fellows who are passionate about cancer research, regardless of their diverse backgrounds. Their dedication embodies the future of cancer science, and we are committed to nurturing this next generation of researchers. We extend our heartfelt appreciation to DPM Heng for his support and encouragement. Together, we will continue pushing the frontiers of cancer research and translating breakthroughs into better clinical outcomes.
