In 2004, whilst still pursuing her subspecialty training in Endocrinology, Dr Chia Su Ynn was given a research fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, USA. During this one and a half year period, she conducted research on blood markers for the diagnosis and management of thyroid cancer, for which she was awarded the Merlin Bumpus Young Researcher Award (2nd prize) by the Cleveland Clinic Foundation.

Dr Chia has wide ranging interests particularly in thyroid disease and diabetes. She is the only endocrinologist in Singapore so far to receive the specialist credential Endocrine Certification in Neck Ultrasound ...
