SUTD’s Associate Provost for Research, Professor Chua Chee Kai, and Assistant Professor Xiong Zehui are among the 108 awardees from Singapore on Clarivate’s 2024 list of Highly Cited Researchers.


More than a quarter of SUTD faculty ranked top 2% of world’s best scientists for 2023
The prestigious list, as compiled by Stanford University, is based on the bibliometric information in the Scopus database and includes more than 220,000 researchers from across the globe, classified into 22 scientific fields and 174 subfields.


Better breathing with custom-fit masks for a good night’s sleep
To enhance the life quality of patients with sleep disordered breathing, researchers and clinicians led by an SUTD scientist used computational modelling to design custom-fit masks that have improved positive airway pressure treatment.

AI-powered tool to detect hate speech in Southeast Asian languages
SUTD researchers developed SGHateCheck, the first functional test specifically tailored to evaluate hate speech in the multilingual environments of Singapore and the broader Southeast Asia.
