Dr Ranjeet Bhagwan Singh Medical Research Trust Fund Programmes

The late Dr Ranjeet Bhagwan Singh’s enthusiasm to foster research in the biomedical field has led him to dedicate a portion of his wealth as grants to supplement research in the field. Biomedical research nowadays is becoming increasingly interdisciplinary to ensure our society lives longer and healthier.

To commemorate the late Dr Ranjeet Bhagwan Singh’s legacy, a virtual event titled Paradigm Shift in Medical Research was organised. This event comprised an RBS Memorial Lecture on “Medical Research in a Doughnut World” delivered by Academician Distinguished Professor Datuk Dr Looi Lai Meng FASc. It also included a dialogue titled “Pivoting Your Research during COVID-19” and the announcement of the 2019/2020 RBS Research Grant recipients. The positive feedback from the audiences has shown that the late Dr Ranjeet Bhagwan Singh’s significant contributions have stood the test of time.
