NUH CEO: AI Literacy is the Future of Healthcare

Professor Aymeric Lim, CEO of Singapore's National University Hospital (NUH), is spearheading a transformation towards an AI-literate institution. His strategic vision, set for 2030 and beyond, emphasizes future-readiness by integrating digital technologies, AI, telehealth, and remote monitoring to enhance patient care delivery.

Lim's leadership prioritizes workforce development and creating sustainable, accessible, and patient-centered healthcare models. Currently, over 47 percent of NUH's more than 9,000 staff have completed structured AI training, reflecting a significant institutional commitment to capability building across all job groups.

The ongoing campus redevelopment at NUH represents a unique opportunity to design future healthcare delivery systems. This initiative aims to foster a more connected and sustainable health environment, solidifying NUH's role in advancing patient care, education, and research.

His leadership philosophy is rooted in service, justice, mercy, humility, and fairness. Lim also draws inspiration from humanitarian work, which reinforces the universality of human needs and the responsibility of healthcare professionals to serve vulnerable populations.
