It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Ms. Lee Hui Li, our IAC Chair, on July 24, 2025. Her unwavering dedication and wise counsel forged an enduring legacy, profoundly shaping the committee and the School. Ms. Lee played an instrumental role in launching Microsoft Research Asia - Singapore and strongly advocated for our Business Analytics and Intelligent Systems (BAIS) programme. Her influence will continue to resonate, and she will be deeply missed by all who worked alongside her.
