He donated half his estate (\u00a3900,000, approximately S$1.77 million) in 2011 to be used for a research fund in memory of his wife, Madam Chua Siew Liew. The donation intended for research was matched with the same amount by the Singapore government.<\/p>\n<p>The income from the endowed Memorial Fund, in accordance to the wishes of Prof Wadsworth in his will, will be used to support and promote research in the Department of Physiology as follows:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><u>Funding<\/u> of research in physiology and disease that will lead to the generation of new knowledge that could be used in the education of medical students<\/li>\n<li><u>Promotion<\/u> of research in physiology and disease that will lead to the generation of new knowledge that could be used in the education of medical students<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The Memorial fund will help to promote excellence in research, support intra- and inter-department\/faculty research and to support seed or conceptual ideas.<\/p>\n<p>Every year Physiology faculty, research fellows and graduate students are awarded concept research grants to fund innovative research projects.
