NUS Mind Science Centre

Quality of mind is the wellspring of all successful enterprises and developing its potential holds the key to successful social and economic development of a country. In Singapore, developing mental resilience in the young and old is all the more crucial for maximizing our limited human resource.

The NUS Mind-Science Centre (MSC) is an academic research centre at the Department of Psychological Medicine under the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine. The Centre aims to be a knowledge center of excellence for psychological research, education and service with a non-drug approach. It will be unique in its distinctive Asian focus and combines the best tradition of Western scientific empiricism with Eastern philosophical thoughts. The Centre’s research is tailored to the local context with community-based translational programmes that will be scaled nationally.
