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

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
