Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*)
A*STAR is the Singapore government’s research institute, charged with spearheading economic-oriented research to advance scientific discovery and develop innovative technology.
Currently we collaborate on a doctoral training programme, the Warwick A*STAR Research Attachment Programme (ARAP), and the Singapore International Pre-Graduate Awards (SIPGA), that provide summer placements for undergraduate students.
Global Young Scientists Summit (GYSS)
The GYSS in Singapore brings together bright young researchers and top scientific minds from around the world to discuss science and technology trends, future game changers and how research could address major global challenges. The Summit is a multi-disciplinary summit that covers topics including chemistry, physics, medicine, mathematics, computer science and engineering. Speakers at the Summit include recipients of the Nobel Prize, Fields Medal, Millennium Technology Prize and Turing Award.
in 2024, Satarupa Das, Postgraduate, Chemistry and Elizabeth Sharp, PhD, Physics were successful in securing a place to participate at the GYSS. They both had an opportunity to present their work and network with renowned scientists in their fields.

Chemistry
GYSS 2024 was an unparalleled experience that enriched my perspective and expanded my horizons. The summit offered a remarkable platform for interdisciplinary exchange, fostering collaborations, new friendships and sparking innovative ideas at every turn.
The highlight of the summit for me was undoubtedly the opportunity to engage with luminaries in various fields, from Nobel laureates to trailblazing researchers. The insightful discussions, thought-provoking lectures, and hands-on workshops not only impacted my understanding of cutting-edge research but also inspired me to push the boundaries of my own work.
I truly believe that GYSS is a game-changer for anyone interested in science and innovation and I truly encourage everyone to attend this wonderful event. It's a chance to meet leaders in your field, stay updated on the latest trends, and make connections that could really boost your career. I highly recommend it to anyone who's passionate about pushing the boundaries of what's possible in science and technology..

Double Masters with Nanyang Technological University,
2016-2018
My Master of Arts in International Politics and East Asia (IPEA) provided me with the theoretical bedrock from which my understanding of APAC-related geo-politics and geo-economics, has flourished.
At the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS), the Master of Sciences in Strategic Studies has pushed me to develop a more practice-oriented approach to security issues that relate to the APAC region: terrorism, political risks, state tensions, disruptive technologies, etc. I partook in practical and analytical workshops run by APAC policy-makers, industry leaders and diplomats who taught me to consider the practical dimensions of corporate and state projects and policies. I also had the chance to work with senior analysts of the Executive Deputy Chairman’s Office and to co-author a published commentary.
