From 'pandemic' to 'endemic' and beyond: Key aspects of research on older Singaporeans in a year of transition

The past year has been one marked by transition – as a country we have moved from treating COVID-19 as a pandemic to living with it as an endemic disease. Research conducted by the Centre for Research on Successful Ageing (ROSA) has taken a similar trajectory, expanding the scope of investigations f...
