HE Kai

Research Fellow Email KAI_HE@nus.edg.sg HE Kai Providing adequate medical care to everyone in the world remains a challenge, especially with many healthcare professionals already overworked. Training qualified doctors is a demanding task, and this contributes to the problem. One potential solution is the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to alleviate the workload of medical workers. AI has the potential to play a crucial role in the entire healthcare process, from predicting diseases, recommending medication, and providing prognosis. He Kai and his colleagues are dedicated to researching medical AI, with the

BOUCHER Yann Felix

Associate Professor (Research) Email ephyb@nus.edu.sg Web Boucher Lab BOUCHER Yann Felix I am interested in the life cycle of enteric bacterial pathogens, from their residence in the human microbiome to their dispersal and survival outside the body. I investigate the evolution of new pathogenic variants during this cycle, such as the acquisition of antimicrobial resistance and novel virulence factors. Although disease mechanisms of several enteric pathogens have been well studied, their ecology is much less understood, especially their interactions with other microbes in the environment. I believe the key to
