Welcome to the Life Sciences Institute website!

The Life Sciences Institute (LSI) is a research centre dedicated to the understanding of fundamental biological pathways in human health and disease, environmental science and industrial processes, a key contributor to the R&D landscape in Singapore.

We promote scientific discovery through creative and multidisciplinary approaches in an environment that is highly collaborative. We also seek to integrate our pioneering basic research with the application and exploitation of new research discoveries. LSI brings together scientists and clinicians from five NUS faculties and supports advanced core facilities and cutting-edge research infrastructure.

We focus programs upon Immunology, Ageing, Neurobiology, Lipid Research and Tissue Engineering combined with hosting the Singapore Centre on Environmental Life Sciences Engineering (SCELSE), the N.1 Institute for Health (N.1) and the Clinical Imaging Research Centre (CIRC).
