1. NUSMed CHS-Connect Issue #03 Oct 2026
The third and final issue of the NUS Medicine CHS-Connect newsletter for 2026 celebrates the people at the heart of simulation - our dedicated Standardised Patients (SPs), faculty, simulation technologists, partners and learners. From the annual Standardised Patients Appreciation Day and Foundational Workshop to welcoming students and visitors from Japan, Seoul and St Thomas, the period from May to September was marked by meaningful learning and exchange. Our team also represented CHS at the 2nd AsiaSPEC International Conference in Davao City, while the newsletter highlights the inaugural Design for Healthcare and 3D Printing course, Simulation Faculty Development Workshop on working with SPs, and the 11th Singapore Humanitarian Conference. Together, these activities remind us that while technology continues to advance, human connection remains at the heart of simulation. As 2026 comes to a close, we thank everyone who has contributed to this vibrant community and look forward to continuing the journey in the new year. Please click here for more details.
