THE ROBERT LOH PROFESSORSHIP IN CLINICAL INNOVATION IN OPHTHALMOLOGY

THE ROBERT LOH PROFESSORSHIP IN CLINICAL INNOVATION IN OPHTHALMOLOGY
TRIBUTE TO THE LATE DR ROBERT LOH

We are pleased to announce a unique opportunity to pay tribute to Dr Robert Loh, one of Singapore’s pioneering founding fathers in Medicine and Ophthalmology. Dr Loh was a past Master of the Academy of Medicine, a Past President of the Singapore Medical Association and Past President of the Singapore Society of Ophthalmology, which laid the foundation of the College of Ophthalmologists.

We would like to honour his pioneering work, his selfless contribution, and his impactful contribution by initiating a new Professorship in his name.

To honor this legacy, we are hoping to establish the “Robert Loh Professorship in Clinical Innovation in Ophthalmology” which will be a collaborative effort between the Academy of Medicine, the College of Ophthalmologists, the Singapore Society of Ophthalmology and Duke-NUS, National University of Singapore. This is an endowed Professorship which will be in perpetuity. Donations will be tax-exempted and funds raised will be matched 1:1. For an endowed Professorship, we will need to raise $5M.

We and Dr Loh’s family will be extremely honoured and grateful for a generous donation towards this Professorship.

The fundraising efforts will be officially launched at the Academy’s 60th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Charity Gala Dinner on 22 July 2017.

Further details can be found in Annex A, which is appended for your kind reference.
