The National University of Singapore (NUS) is one of the first medical schools in Asia to exploit the use of the World Wide Web on the Internet for the delivery of health information databases. Its WWW server was established in 1993 by the NUS Biocomputing Research and User Support (BRUS) technology group in collaboration with the Computer Resource Planning committee of the Faculty of Medicine. As a result of the early recognition of the powerful platform on which health information services can be delivered worldwide, the NUS effort has been accredited with a number of Internet firsts in the area of health informatics. The following are some of the NUS achievements: NUS-NCI CancerNet on the Web. The NUS developed and implemented the first WWW version of the popular CancerNet database offered by the National Cancer Institute, NIH, USA.
Health Info-Com Network Medical Newsletter. The NUS developed and implemented the first WWW version of the medical newsletter, MEDNEWS which is edited by Dr. David Dodell, USA. It is now mirrored by the University of Pennsylvania in the United States and De Montfort University, U.K.
