The National University of Singapore’s Bia-Echo Asia Centre for Reproductive Longevity and Equality (ACRLE) specialises in women’s reproductive health, ageing, healthy longevity and digital medicine
It was established under the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine and was made possible through a gift from the Bia-Echo Foundation, founded by lawyer and entrepreneur, Nicole Shanahan.
The team works to help women preserve and improve their reproductive systems for conception, enabling them to conceive safely in their later years and to remain generally healthy for longer.
Prioritising female reproductive longevity and equality
Their vision is to prioritise female reproductive longevity and equality through scientific and clinical discoveries coupled with powerful narratives. They lead the way in women’s reproductive health, advocating and educating on reproductive equality.
They work closely with other academic institutions and stakeholders to change the narrative of reproductive equality and longevity, particularly for Asian women.
To achieve their vision, ACRLE investigations explore four main tracks: ovarian biology and senescence, translational and clinical studies, population health studies, public health education and outreach.
