I am an interdisciplinary scholar dedicated to bridging literary studies, healthcare, and education through the lens of care ethics and the medical humanities. My research focuses on modern and contemporary literature, particularly on narratives of illness, caregiving, and end-of-life experiences. I am deeply interested in how stories shape our understanding of care, vulnerability, and dignity.
Beyond my research, I am committed to fostering collaboration across disciplines. As Co-Chair of the Medical Humanities Working Group at NTU's Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, I work to integrate critical thinking, ethical reflection, and humanities-based frameworks into medical education. I also lead the Medical Humanities Research Cluster at NTU, encouraging dialogue between the humanities, social sciences, and health sciences.
At the heart of my work is a belief in the power of interdisciplinary engagement to enrich academic inquiry and care practices.
