Our Partners

The Lien Foundation is a Singapore-based philanthropic organisation that seeks to inspire social change and improve the lives of seniors, children with special needs and those who were born into low-income homes. Through its unique brand of ‘radical philanthropy’, the Foundation pioneers and propagates solutions that address the root causes of challenges in eldercare and early childhood development in Singapore.
The Centre for Evidence and Implementation (CEI) is a global, not-for-profit evidence intermediary. CEI established an office in Singapore in 2017 and our multidisciplinary team works across other offices in Melbourne, Sydney, and London. The work of CEI brings together expertise in evidence synthesis and translation, implementation science, and program design and evaluation with extensive experience in early childhood, parenting, child development and disability. CEI works closely with its partners, including academics, policymakers, governments, practitioners, program providers, organisational leaders, philanthropists and funders. CEI is committed to building capacity in the community by working with its partners to design, test, implement and evaluate evidence-informed programs that are contextualised and responsive to changing needs. The focus of the work at CEI is to put evidence into practice and policy in order to drive more effective decision-making and deliver better outcomes for children and families.

The National University Hospital (NUH) is Singapore’s leading university hospital. While the hospital at Kent Ridge first received its patients on 24 June 1985, its legacy started from 1905, the date of the founding of what is today the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine. NUH is the principal teaching hospital of the medical school. 

NUH’s unique identity as a university hospital is a key attraction for healthcare professionals who aspire to do more than practise tertiary medical care. It offers an environment where research and teaching are an integral part of medicine, and continue to shape medicine and transform care for the community. 

NUH is an academic medical centre serving more than one million patients a year with over 50 medical, surgical and dental specialties. It is the only public and not-for-profit hospital in Singapore to provide trusted care for adults, women and children under one roof, including the only paediatric kidney and liver transplant programme in the country.

The NUH is a key member of the National University Health System (NUHS), one of three public healthcare clusters in Singapore.

Through its close network with the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, NUH practitioners collaborate closely with CHILD to develop and integrate research with clinical programs, and with practice relevant to the early childhood ecosystem.

Founded in 2007, the A*STAR Institute for Human Development and Potential (A*STAR IHDP) was the first institute within the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) to focus on clinical sciences and translational research.

To fulfil its vision of building gateways and an evidence base for positive health, A*STAR IHDP strongly promotes clinical research that supports the understanding of metabolism, neuroscience, and how they impact human development. By leveraging on innovative approaches, technologies and seminal nationwide birth cohort studies such as Growing Up in Singapore Towards healthy Outcomes (GUSTO) and Singapore PREconception Study of long-Term maternal and child Outcomes (S-PRESTO), its esteemed researchers have made significant strides in pertinent healthcare fields like metabolic diseases, brain health, pathways to normal growth and development, and nutritional sciences.

Additionally, through its close ties with academia, industry and government, A*STAR IHDP is able to stay on the pulse of research and policy priorities to produce work that impacts at both the national and international level.
