Experience with human-subject research, neuroimaging, statistics, or programming is advantageous.

Its research environment includes specialised laboratories, clinical collaborations, advanced imaging facilities, and interdisciplinary centres focused on health and human development. The university employs academic, research, professional, and technical staff from around the world.

Singapore offers opportunities in universities, healthcare, biomedical research, technology, finance, education, and multinational companies. The culture is multicultural and multilingual, with English widely used at work alongside Chinese, Malay, and Tamil. Life is convenient, safe, and highly connected, with excellent public transport, diverse food, shopping, parks, and coastal areas. Housing can be expensive, especially near the city centre, so newcomers often consider shared apartments or locations close to MRT lines. Foreign professionals usually need an appropriate work pass, such as an Employment Pass or S Pass; the employer normally submits the application, and approval depends on salary, qualifications, and current regulations. New arrivals should arrange accommodation, health insurance, banking, and a local phone plan. Singapore’s tropical climate is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain, so lightweight clothing and practical footwear are useful.
