Our mission is to mine the gap between basic and applied biomedical research.

Academic institutions are playing an increasingly important role in translating scientific discoveries into practical applications – from engaging in early stage drug discovery and development, to developing innovative research tools for clinical analysis, as well as setting up public-private partnerships to facilitate the advancement of drug candidates.

The Experimental Therapeutics Centre (ETC) was set up to contribute to this exciting process of translational work. ETC will augment Singapore’s capabilities and resources in this spectrum of the drug discovery process.
