Donavan Tan Jia Jie, a Year 3 DBS student and an aspiring clinician-scientist, shares:

"As an aspiring clinician-scientist, I am committed to delivering compassionate patient care while advancing medical knowledge through innovative research to improve patient outcomes. This motivated me to pursue research supervised by Dr Alan Prem Kumar at the Department of Pharmacology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of 91福利社 (NUS), for my final year project and internship. Over the past 14 months, I have immersed myself in research鈥攆rom conducting laboratory experiments to collaborating with world-renowned clinicians and researchers on bench-to-bedside research projects and scientific articles. This enriching journey has profoundly shaped my understanding of how research drives innovations that transform patients' lives and strengthened my resolve to contribute to this field."

Quote from Donavan's supervisor, Dr Alan Prem Kumar who is the Assistant Dean, Division of Graduate Studies, Dean鈥檚 Office and the Assistant Professor (Research), Department of Pharmacology at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, NUS:

鈥淒onavan is an exemplary student who did his 8-month FYP and thereafter a 6-month internship in my research laboratory on the development of our in-house drug enhancing tumor immunogenicity in aggressive breast cancer patients. During his tenure in my research laboratory, he has actively been involved in several high impact reviews. He has also been very instrumental in putting together and editing a few research articles from my team. Donavan is a well driven person and excellent team player.鈥�
