Highlights of the week: For more career opportunities from various industries, please access Career Axis. Dear Students You would agree that the pandemic has undoubtedly shone a spotlight on
the healthcare and bioscience sector like never before.
Companies in the Medtech, Biotech and
Pharmaceutical arena are riding the wave of digitisation and technology as
digital transformation is coming to the whole of society. Globally, mentions of artificial intelligence (AI) from the filings of companies in the medical devices industry
rose 25% between the first and second quarters of 2021. In
Singapore, we see an exciting time ahead for the industry as we witness SingHealth and SGInnovate inking a
three-year partnership to build and scale up health science
innovation with the use of AI just this Tuesday, 9 Nov. One of the key areas
that this partnership will focus on includes talent development through
real-world training opportunities and exchanges. Begin by checking out and understanding the possibilities presented by
various companies across MNCs, SMEs, Start-ups and
Governments.
Our local healthcare system is also no stranger to the deployment of
AI and proves optimistic for the growth of the industry. Healthcare
professionals have demonstrated the ability to progress with the times – from
the ‘Chatbot doctor’ promptly rolled out last year for over 3,000 patients in community
care facilities, AI-enabled models assessing fall risks, a device that creates 3D holograms to assist
doctors, to an ‘artificial
brain’ to manage Tan Tock Seng Hospital’s
services. An enabler, AI sets the industry on a quest to raise capability and
deliver better care. As it works alongside us, healthcare workers will be
empowered and have a greater capacity to bring more love, care
and compassion to patients. If you would like to learn more and prepare for interviews in the
Biomedical Sciences and Healthcare, Building & Construction and Water
& Environment industries, feel free to arrange a consultation session
