Aymeric Lim Is Building AI-Literacy for a New Generation of Health Care

Lim said the culture of learning at NUH helps them continue to improve and adapt as health care evolves.

Professor Aymeric Lim is the CEO of National University Hospital (NUH) in Singapore, a major tertiary referral institution that provides adult, pediatric and obstetrics and gynecology services. As a physician and professor at the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, Lim has been transforming NUH into an AI-literate institution. His main priorities as CEO revolve around ensuring NUH remains future-ready for 2030 and beyond, advancing new models of care, investing in people, maintaining strong clinical outcomes, and advancing education, research and innovation as an academic medical center.

Lim's leadership is rooted in service to staff, patients and the country, guided by values such as justice, mercy, humility and fairness. He finds teaching crucial in his role, as it keeps him learning, improves his clinical skills and leadership, and fosters a culture of learning among students and colleagues. Lim's passion for humanitarian work stems from the belief that health care fundamentally revolves around service, and his experiences in resource-constrained environments have sharpened his clinical judgment and problem-solving abilities.

He advises younger professionals to not just react to the system, but to help build the system they want to work in, shaping systems that allow others to succeed and creating a vision for the future.
