About the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine

The Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) is a leading medical school that trains doctors to deliver exceptional patient care. Our programmes, including undergraduate and graduate degrees, are designed to equip students with a strong foundation in scientific medicine, technology, data science, and the humanities.

Our Mission

We aim to be a model for innovative medical education and a centre for transformative research. Our primary clinical partner is the National Healthcare Group, a leader in public healthcare recognised for its expertise, facilities, and teaching capabilities.

A New Era in Medical Education

As we transition to an NTU medical school, we welcome our first intake of the NTU MBBS programme, which includes enhanced themes such as precision medicine and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare, with an expanded scope in medical humanities. Our graduates will have a deep understanding of the scientific basis of medicine and be well-prepared to tackle complex challenges in healthcare.

Facing the Challenge of Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial drug resistance is a growing concern that poses significant challenges to public health infrastructure worldwide. In Singapore, the number of residents aged 65 years or older will triple by 2030, putting additional strain on healthcare systems. There is an urgent need to develop new alternatives or compatible therapies to combat this problem.

Research Opportunities

We are currently recruiting a Research Fellow who will work closely with Dr Kevin Pethe as part of a large interdisciplinary team. The appointed Research Fellow will lead studies to evaluate the potency and pharmacokinetics of therapeutic phages in animal models of bacterial infections.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead research projects
