Tsinghua-NUS Joint Research Symposium<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In 2024, Tsinghua University and the National University of Singapore (NUS) established the Tsinghua-NUS Joint Research Initiative Fund to foster collaborative research between researchers from both institutions in areas of shared strategic interest.

The inaugural call for proposals in 2024 focused on four key themes:

(a) Materials Innovation for Carbon Neutrality

(b) Biomedical Research for Healthcare

(c) Artificial Intelligence

(d) Advanced Manufacturing

<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

This symposium will feature presentations by the research teams supported under the 2024 call, and showcase the outcomes and key findings of their projects. The symposium will also allow a platform for researchers from both universities to exchange ideas and identify opportunities for future collaboration.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe NUSMedSci Alliance had invited Dr Safia, a Senior Editor with Nature Genetics, to share about some tips for NUS Medicine Researchers who are keen to publish in Nature Journals, what happens to their manuscripts after submission and what is the recourse for those whose submissions were rejected. The seminar was very well received by the community. It not only helped the Researchers in attendance gain a better understanding of the roles of editors in the process, but also what to include and look out for, in their publication submissions to Journals such as Nature Genetics.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
