THONG CHAI INSTITUTE OF MEDICAL RESEARCH
TCIMR aims to provide advanced TCM education and training to enhance the professional standards of TCM practitioners in Singapore, while establishing a platform for clinical research to promote and advance the study of TCM, including traditional prescriptions and specific diseases. The Institute also supports the development of future TCM professionals and researchers through research opportunities, scholarships, bursaries and professional training.
The Thong Chai Institute of Medical Research (TCIMR) was established in 2003. TCIMR collaborates with TCM universities in China and invites renowned TCM practitioners and professors to conduct professional education programmes. It also promotes clinical research in collaboration with the Singapore Thong Chai Medical Institution. In 2004, TCIMR developed “Bu Shen Yi Jing Wan”, based on clinical experience from the Fertility Clinic, which was subsequently launched in 2015. TCIMR is an Institution of a Public Character (IPC), with eligible donations qualifying for a 2.5-times tax deduction.
