Research & NUrSing

In NUS Nursing, we believe research and learning are in parallel and can complement each other.

NUrSing is a thrice-a-year e-newsletter produced by Alice Lee Centre for Nursing Studies. It presents a collection of articles and stories that cover School news and events, staff and student achievements, as well as NUS Nursing’s thought leadership in the areas of education, research, clinical matters and healthcare.
