ZEISS and the Lung Centre of the Philippines
Last year, ZEISS brought scientists from the National University of Singapore and Nanyang Technological University to the Philippines for a research collaboration with the Lung Centre of the Philippines. The project’s main focus was a practical study on lung infection and damage, and future therapeutic strategies for the treatment of influenza pneumonia.

ZEISS and Education
ZEISS and Nanyang Technological University have partnered to launch the “ASEAN-NTU Microscopy Workshop 2016” – the first of its kind from the School of Biological Sciences, NTU. The upcoming project, set to happen in July 2016, would see top hand-picked research students in ASEAN countries come to NTU to learn more on the latest microscopy technological trends and innovations in research applications and bring the knowledge back to their home countries.
