|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4/24/26 |  From bowel habits to bad gut feelings | Bloating, constipation, stomach discomfort or an uneasy feeling you cannot quite explain, our gut often sends signals long before we decide to pay attention. In this episode, Duke-NUS alum Dr Tan Yu Bin from Class of 2018, now an Associate Consultant in the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Singapore General Hospital, helps us make sense of common gut symptoms, demystifies what happens in the gastroenterology clinic and shares practical tips for better gut health. Tune in... | 44m 34s | ||||||
| 1/12/26 |  Matters of the mind: transforming mental health care globally | Beyond resting enough, eating healthily and staying active, the famous saying “health is wealth” also emphasises the importance of our mental wellbeing. Yet, it still remains misunderstood and neglected globally, leading to a concerning lack of support for struggling individuals and communities. In this episode, Assistant Professor Anne-Claire Stona shares how she and her Global Mental Health team at the SingHealth Duke-NUS Global Health Institute (SDGHI) are bringing people together t... | 45m 01s | ||||||
| 9/30/25 |  Anatomy of innovation: teaching with purpose | From virtual reality to 3D-printed tonsils and spines and even digitised human cadavers, the classroom of tomorrow is already here at Duke-NUS. But beyond the cool factor, how do these tools and innovations actually help medical students learn—and how does one decide what tech belongs in the curriculum? In this episode, Professor Fernando Bello shares how his TELI team brings these education-enhancing innovations into the medical classroom. He discusses how educators are being equipped to int... | 39m 32s | ||||||
| 7/3/25 |  First call: From medical student to emergency doctor | The moment you graduate from medical school, a thousand questions and more rush in. “Will I be ready?” “What’s life like as a junior doctor?” “Did I pick the right specialty?” These are questions that Dr Jeremy Pong, a Class of 2020 graduate who started his career in the middle of a pandemic, is no stranger to. Now as an emergency doctor at Singapore General Hospital, Jeremy looks back at his first years on the job—from navigating PGY1 to finding his footing (and his passion) in emergen... | 37m 18s | ||||||
| 3/18/25 |  In the blood: Catching cancer before it strikes again | Cancer recurrence is often deadlier than the original disease, especially when it spreads undetected. Yet for survivors, post-treatment monitoring can be a financial, emotional and mental burden—relying on costly, invasive tests with no guarantees. But what if detecting cancer was as simple as a blood test? In this episode, Dr Debleena Ray, the founder of the biotech startup 2Strands Biosciences and a former Duke-NUS post-doctoral fellow, shares how she’s bridging research and ent... | 39m 06s | ||||||
| 12/3/24 |  Blue Zone 2.0: In search of the blue tick of long life | Can simply desiring a longer, healthier life help make it a reality? The concept of “manifesting”—the Cambridge Dictionary’s word of the year for 2024—suggests it might. But as we explore Singapore’s transformation into the world’s first self-made Blue Zone, we find that there’s much more to living longer than just wanting it. Join us as sociologist Associate Professor Angelique Chan from Duke-NUS’ Centre for Ageing Research and Education peels back the layers of what it really t... | 41m 06s | ||||||
| 8/20/24 |  From Asia’s frontline: Managing the ever-present risk of H5N1 | In Episode 12 of MEDICUS – the podcast, we sit down with immunologist Rukie de Alwis from Duke-NUS’ Centre for Outbreak Preparedness, and virologist Erik Karlsson from the Institute Pasteur in Cambodia, to discuss the threat of bird flu, in particular H5N1, to Southeast Asia. While many headlines talk about the outbreak of H5N1 in cows, a variant of the virus has been circulating in Southeast Asia for quite some time. That virus may not infect cows, but it has on occasion jumped into humans ... | 36m 34s | ||||||
| 5/8/24 |  Restoring humanity in the age of AI | In Episode 11 of MEDICUS – the podcast, we sit down with Devanand Anantham, who leads the new SingHealth Duke-NUS Medical Humanities Institute, to take stock of how far medicine has come, the potential of AI and why it is high time we reframe our conversations about health. Take for example Mrs Tan. The retiree likes nothing more than to spend hours tending to her garden, but recently her knee has been giving her a lot of pain, robbing her of the joy and serenity she enjoyed so much w... | 29m 34s | ||||||
| 2/7/24 |  From burnout to balance: How to adopt a sustainable fitness routine | In Episode 10 of MEDICUS – the podcast, we went on a search for a scientist who has woven fitness into his work and family life routine so well that it looks effortless to find out how he does it. With January over, we’re already one month into the New Year, so the pressure to maintain any new or continuing fitness commitment is steadily growing. So, we sat down with Sven Petersen, a principal research scientist with the Laboratory for Translational and Molecular Imaging at Duke-NUS, who talk... | 16m 42s | ||||||
| 10/23/23 |  Collaborations that click: the secret behind the perfect research partnership | In Episode 9 of MEDICUS – the podcast, we’re talking to two scientists about what makes for a perfect collaboration. In modern translational science, new breakthroughs more often that are the product of a multidisciplinary and multi-institutional collaboration. And these collaborations are at their most successful when it is not just the expertise that is complementary but when the people within the team gel well. So, in this episode, two researchers who worked on a project that could make a ... | 13m 17s | ||||||

| 7/25/23 |  Creative connections: Drawing inspiration from science and art | In the latest episode of MEDICUS – the Podcast, three scientists talk about what art brings to their lives, how the two interplay for them, and whether they really are two sides of the same coin. In the history of science, Leonardo da Vinci stands out as a giant who mastered both art and science. But there are many more scientists—past and present—who draw on the two, seemingly unrelated, disciplines to help them create something new or express their understanding of the world around us. Albe... | 16m 35s | ||||||
| 5/4/23 |  Fishing for telomeres: two scientists are measuring how fast our biological clocks tick | In this episode of MEDICUS – the Podcast, we meet two scientists to go fishing. But instead of heading out to sea to cast their lines, their “ocean” is a small tube in which they fish for specific genetic sequences that mark the ends of our chromosomes. Much like the plastic caps at the end of shoelaces, the sequences they hunt for, called telomeres, make sure that our genetic assembly instructions don’t unravel as our cells replicate. Today, we know that these caps not only hold us together ... | 15m 42s | ||||||
| 2/16/23 |  From ragweed to dust mites: we navigate the sneezes and wheezes of allergies | As part of this issue of MEDICUS’ wider focus on how the environment affects health, the MEDICUS team is taking a deeper look into what’s going on when the body perceives things from the environment as a threat. We’re, of course, talking about allergies. And joining us on this episode are: Our special, preteen guest co-host Juno Young, who had a million questions about allergiesAnd immunologist Ashley St John, an associate professor at Duke-NUS who leads the laboratory of immunity and immune ... | 12m 15s | ||||||
| 11/10/22 |  Sleeping your way to better health | “Only sleep when dead.” That’s the rationale that tribes of people, from party animals to early morning exercise devotees, have used to explain their sleep habits. But we may be putting more at stake than we realise when we regularly cut our Zs short because sleep is not just a black hole of downtime. Most adults need about seven to nine hours of sleep a night for optimal performance and health—six if you are among those who really don’t need much shut eye. So, in this episode of MEDICU... | 29m 15s | ||||||
| 8/12/22 |  Tangoing with mosquitoes to end dengue's deadly dance | In this episode, we venture into a veritable mosquito haven—the Duke-NUS insectary, where healthy mosquitoes are grown to help researchers shed light on how new vaccines and even treatments impact the dengue virus when the virus is inside the mosquito. We also find out which common insect repellents work and which ones will leave you scratching countless bites. Joining us in this episode: - Dr Milly Choy, Senior Research Fellow, Duke-NUS Emerging Infectious Di... | 12m 52s | ||||||
| 5/20/22 |  Dying for a good death: having the conversations we dread most | In this episode of MEDICUS - the Podcast, we talk about the conversation that we dread having the most, one of society’s biggest taboos: death. Joining us on this episode are: Professor Eric Finkelstein, the executive director of the Lien Centre for Palliative Care at Duke-NUS. The Centre’s twin mission focuses on research and education to improve end-of-life care. Beyond publishing research papers on end-of-life care, the Centre’s research faculty ensure that the findings are communicated to... | 16m 34s | ||||||
| 2/15/22 |  MEDICUS - the Podcast: Episode 1 | Scientists from Duke-NUS and the National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID) found that 2003 SARS survivors who have been vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA vaccine produced highly potent functional antibodies that are capable of neutralising not only all known SARS-CoV-2.
