Note From Professor Chong Yap Seng

the Khoo Teck Puat – National University Children’s Medical Institute (KTP-NUCMI) has seen an extraordinary 60 years. From the early, formative years of paediatrics as a University Department, the Institute has evolved into a globally renowned facility dedicated to the comprehensive and holistic care for children.

KTP-NUCMI has been, for medical students, educators and clinicians alike, a nurturing space steeped in a vibrant teaching culture enlivened with an innovative, can-do spirit. Esteemed pioneers of clinical care and research have inspired and paved for us the pathways integrating novel models of paediatric care with translational research that the researchers and clinician-scientists from NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine continue to advance today.

KTP-NUCMI has been, for medical students, educators and clinicians alike, a nurturing space steeped in a vibrant teaching culture enlivened with an innovative, can-do spirit.

From seeking powerful cures for childhood leukaemia, to developing methods to conduct safer transplants with better outcomes, the pioneers of KTP-NUCMI truly take to heart their mission to make a difference. It has positively impacted the lives of generations growing up, the children cared for, as well as their families.

I wish you continued success as the catalyst for change and look forward to inspiring health for all, together.
