Join us in congratulating Dr. Jen Hong Tan for being named one of the Rising Stars of Science by Research.com for the third consecutive year! Incredibly proud of his achievements in advancing AI in healthcare at SGH's Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. #RisingStar #HealthcareInnovation #SGHPride #SGHDareToBeExceptional
I'm fortunate to be recognized (or rather, machine-identified) as one of the Rising Stars of Science by Research.com for the third time. While there's been a small mix-up with the affiliation (I'm currently with Singapore General Hospital), I'm deeply grateful for the recognition. I've also had the same issue with the recent Top 2% Scientists list by Stanford. That said, the past year at the Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory has been an incredible journey. I'm thankful for the diverse opportunities to push the boundaries of AI in healthcare and look forward to continuing this exciting work!
