Director
Programme in Emerging Infectious Diseases
Duke-NUS Medical School (Duke-NUS), Singapore’s only graduate-entry
medical school was established as a landmark collaboration between two
world-ranking institutions of higher education – Duke University and
National University of Singapore. Duke-NUS provides innovative education
and impactful research to enhance the practice of medicine in Singapore and
beyond. Through its strategic partnership with Singapore Health Services
(SingHealth) which includes Singapore General Hospital, the School is able
to leverage its joint capabilities and infrastructure to develop outstanding
clinical education programmes and cutting-edge research collaborations that
translate fundamental science into better health. Duke-NUS and its partners have
created an academically-based Programme in Emerging Infectious Diseases
(EID) designed to serve as a national and international resource of excellence
in emerging infectious diseases. The mission of the Programme faculty is to
conduct high-level basic and applied research, and to train graduate students,
postdoctoral fellows and clinician-scientists in the disciplines relevant to
emerging infectious diseases. Duke-NUS and its partners provide state-of-the-
art research facilities, including a standalone ABSL3 unit.
We are seeking an individual with exceptional scientific credentials and
leadership skills to head the EID Programme. The Programme Director
will provide leadership, including engagement with the broader biomedical
community in Singapore and with Duke University; strategic hiring and
programme development; medical school and graduate education; faculty
mentoring; budgetary and space planning. The School will provide the new
Programme Director with the resources to support the highest level of research.
Interested candidates should send a CV and the names of three references to:
Chair, Search Committee on Emerging Infectious Diseases, Duke-NUS
Medical School, Singapore by email to: [email protected]
Applications will be accepted until the position is filled. We anticipate to
begin interviewing candidates in early April 2020.
