The Emergency Medicine Collaborative (EMCO) is a student research mentorship group established in 2021. Led by students from all three Singapore medical schools (NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, NTU Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine and Duke-NUS Medical School), we have an outreach of over 800 students and growing. We partner with the Pre-hospital & Emergency Research Centre (PERC) as well as all major healthcare clusters in Singapore to provide opportunities for students to engage in EM-related research.
