NTU-NHG Innovation Collaboration Grant 2012
The NTU-NHG Innovation Collaboration Grant (ICG) is a joint grant call launched by Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and National Healthcare Group (NHG) to fund collaborative projects in various aspects of health sciences including medical innovation and improvement such as bio-medical engineering, diagnostics, medical devices and therapeutics.
The joint grant call also aims to promote greater research collaborations between NTU and NHG, and to provide seed funding for potential projects to vie for larger national grants.
