Learn more

In recent years, the role of medical affairs is gaining ground in enhancing operational efficiency and effectiveness within the pharmaceutical industry. Not only the increasing complexity of science behind product development but also the need to incorporate diverse expert opinions have further highlighted the significance of this function. As medical affairs personnel, such as yourself, navigate through an increasingly complex healthcare environment, you will need to have an optimal blend of scientific knowledge, communication skills, and business acumen to succeed in this role.

Although many pharmaceutical companies are investing in training programmes to build and nurture talent in medical affairs, there is a need to harness these skills at an early stage. Hence, drawing on the extensive experience of Duke-NUS Medical School, the Joint Alliance Duke-NUS Education (JADE) was conceptualised and designed to provide participants and professionals involved in medical affairs with the necessary expertise to develop and strengthen their core competencies.

JADE consists of 12 blended courses and provides a comprehensive curriculum representing the perspectives of stakeholders involved across the entire spectrum of activities in medical affairs – industry, researchers, academia, and public health experts. Topics of practical relevance will help learners to build a strong foundation in both the scientific knowledge and understanding of the various functions in medical affairs, enabling them to be effective contributors in this important field.
