The project aims to understand and improve the delivery and uptake of preventative screening practices for breast cancer, particularly for those at higher genetic risk for the disease. The potential impact of the project would be the successful implementation that bridges end-user needs and what the system can provide puts “the tiny red dot” on the world map as one of the pioneers in integrating state-of-the-art breast cancer risk prediction tools in breast cancer screening, with a real potential to transform breast cancer screening in Singapore.

This project aims to investigate the neurodevelopmental risks for human offspring exposed to gestational diabetes and explore the protective factors to help children exposed to hyperglycemia during pregnancy. There is a translational potential with the identification of modifiable factors that could be targeted to minimize the offspring neurodevelopmental risks associated with gestational diabetes.
