SCSS - Dr Susan Lim Award for Outstanding Young Investigator 2025 - Call for applications
The SCSS is pleased to launch this year's competition for the 2025 Dr. Susan Lim Award for Outstanding Young Investigator supported by the Dr. Susan Lim Endowment for Education and Research. This award recognizes the exceptional achievements of an investigator in the early part of their independent career in stem cell research. The award emphasizes the numerous and continued contributions of Singapore-based researchers toward understanding the fundamental biology of stem cells and promoting their potential as powerful tools in disease modeling, drug screening and regenerative medicine.
