A tale of two beginnings

Two beginnings dovetail to make this August issue more special than usual. The Class of 2018, LKCMedicine’s first cohort will have enjoyed a very meaningful Convocation on the NTU main campus. Although they have started work in Singapore’s hospitals across the island, it feels like a true beginning only after the last well-wish has been said. We’ve captured some poignant moments in our pages. We also celebrate the five medal winners who have excelled and made their mark on the School.

At this time every year, we warmly welcome a new MBBS cohort – this year, the Class of 2023. They will be starting their journey to become doctors of the future, wherever they’re needed. Like Dr Diana Barron, who graciously penned our welcome message this issue, we’re also looking forward to getting to know the new batch. We speak to a few of them for this issue.
