Decoding And Tracking Brain Disorders To Alleviate Their Impact
Gathering multi-disciplinary expertise, spanning molecular, cellular, system, computational, clinical and population neuroscience, to drive new discoveries.
Reducing the burden of neurodegenerative diseases, which are predicted to overtake cancer as the second leading cause of death globally by 2040.
Tracking the state of mental health in Singapore’s general population, including by helming the nation-wide Singapore Mental Health Study with our partners at the Institute of Mental Health.
Through unlocking the brain's secrets, scientists at LKCMedicine are helping to develop new treatment for neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's Disease.Our Impact
Leading Groundbreaking Research To Enable Novel Interventions
We reported the largest genetic study on Parkinson’s disease in Asians, leading to a personalised metric to estimate an individual’s risk of the disease.
We discovered a “metabolic switch” in the brain’s microglia immune cells that could be targeted to treat Alzheimer’s disease, among other breakthroughs.
We received $20 million grant to define brain defects causing dementia, $10 million grant to study a potential stem cell therapy and $4.5 million to develop therapeutics for Parkinson's disease.
The study on the genetic risk of Parkinsons' Disease among Asians by Assoc Prof Foo Jia Nee and Michelle Liam Mulan was published in Nature Genetics.
