NTU LKC Medicine’s new network embeds patient insights into med research

The network currently includes 40 patient partners from different backgrounds.

The Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore has established OPEN Voices, a network of patients and caregivers to collaborate with researchers and educators on medical research and education programmes.

Co-developed by LKCMedicine’s OPEN and two patient partners, the network will incorporate patient perspectives into areas such as setting research priorities, designing studies, and conducting clinical trials.

It will also support patient and public involvement initiatives across the school by advising and co-designing research and education projects, along with co-developing patient-friendly research materials.

The network currently includes 40 patient partners from different backgrounds, living with conditions such as cancer, diabetes, eczema, and dementia, along with caregivers and healthy individuals.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
