National University of Singapore (NUS)

Although BNHC (the commercial arm of BinaryHealthCare), has ceased operations, I am still available for consulting, advisory, or knowledge transfer services through the National University of Singapore (NUS) 😄

I joined NUS on a full-time basis back in July 2020 but the first lecture I delivered as an Academic Staff of NUS actually dates back to March 2016 (as an adjunct) where I delivered the Mini-HI (Mini Health Informatician) programme via the Centre of Health Informatics. My first lecture in NUS however, was my first guest lecture for NUS School of Computing (on Interoperability in Health IT – Introduction to HL7) back in August 2012 (I delivered several other guest lectures to different schools and faculties in NUS since then but that’s another story).

Writing this really brings back memories on my journey into academia, which began in February 2009 when I was tasked to develop curriculum for Medical Imaging Informatics at one of the Institute of Higher Learnings (IHL) in Singapore. Joining NUS full-time as an Academic Staff was not something I had imagined, but I am glad I did 😄

This page is dedicated to providing a brief overview of my work at NUS (my work with other IHLs can be found here) and I welcome opportunities for meaningful collaborations.
