Main Research Programmes

Human Health and Potential

Developing a foundational model of blood using the full parameters of the raw complete blood count (CBC) measurement data to expand the diagnostic capabilities of the CBC test.

Human Health and Potential

CLIC logo

Exploring cognitive flexibility across the lifespan by developing innovative research in the science of learning and translating it to educational and real-life applications.

Human Health and Potential

Investigating how individuals live and move in Singapore, how the urban environment shapes their exposure to health risks, and how this influences their behaviour and health.

Decarbonisation

Examining the combustion fundamentals of hydrogen, ammonia, their blends, and their blends with hydrocarbon fuels to enable the penetration of zero-carbon fuels in the Singapore energy system.

Decarbonisation

Shifting the chemical manufacturing industry to a more circular, sustainable, and resilient model by addressing systemic challenges like the integration of regionally available resources.

Other Research

Decarbonisation

eCO2RR

Focuses on the design and synthesis of next-generation electrocatalysts to drive the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added chemicals and fuels.

Decarbonisation

LCER

CARES is contributing to two projects under Phase 2 of the LCER Programme hosted by A*STAR to support research, development and demonstration projects to advance low-carbon technologies, and enable decarbonisation of the power and industry sectors.

Manufacturing

PIPS

An industry-led platform that funds two smaller projects on the digitalisation of chemical manufacturing and the automated identification of more sustainable chemical routes.

Digitalisation

The World Avatar™

Provides clear, visual information to support optimisation, decision-making and scenario analysis for molecular reactions, building management, electricity grid analysis, city resilience, and more.

Key Completed Projects

Decarbonisation

C4T was CARES’ flagship programme that ran for 12 years. It sat the heart of Singapore’s global research and development hub and paves the way for a prosperous, energy-efficient, low-emission eco-city.

Decarbonisation

Now known as Accelerated Materials, the AMPLE project was a collaboration between CARES and NTUitive and was at the forefront of advancing nanomaterials with the support of a significant S$6.5 million grant from the National Research Foundation.
