Roche establishes new medical research hub in Singapore
With an investment of 100 million Swiss Francs, the Hub for Translational Medicine will initially employ around 30 leading scientists. A joint steering committee consisting of members from Roche and the Singapore institutes will define the strategic direction of the alliance and oversee its research projects.
“Singapore’s research institutions offer outstanding scientific excellence combined with state-of-the-art translational medicine facilities,” said Jean-Jacques Garaud, Global Head of Roche Pharma Research and Early Development. “The powerful combination of intellectual and technological capabilities together with outstanding government commitment at the heart of this collaboration will provide a unique opportunity to drive personalised healthcare.”
