SUMMARY:Workshop: Build your own AI agents
DESCRIPTION:The Harvard Club of Singapore\, in collaboration with the Old Rafflesians’ Association (ORA)\, invites you to a hands-on Saturday afternoon workshop on building your own AI agents. This is a working session\, not a talk nor a demo — each participant will leave having their own AI agents for personal use. \n\n\n\nOver two hours\, we’ll cover what an AI agent actually is\, the small set of patterns that make agents useful in real work\, and how to compose them safely. Then we build together: from a blank slate\, through prompts and tools\, to working agents each participant can take home and continue developing. \n\n\n\nCapacity is deliberately capped to keep the session useful\, with a comfortable troubleshooter-to-participant ratio. Trained troubleshooters will be on hand throughout to help you build\, debug\, and improve your agents throughout the session. \n\n\n\nWho this is for: alumni who want practical fluency rather than more theory. No prior coding experience is required\, but you should be comfortable navigating your own laptop. \n\n\n\nPrerequisite: a paid Claude Pro subscription (S$25/month). Prepare in advance\, or we’ll help you set it up during the session. Bring: a laptop with at least two hours of power (charging points are limited). Provided: Wi-Fi\, coffee & tea\, and refreshments. \n\n\n\nWhen: Saturday\, 5 September 2026 — doors 2:30pm\, session 3:00–5:00pm.  \n\n\n\nWhere: Stamford Training Room\, Blk B 1st Floor\, Raffles Institution\, 1 Raffles Institution Lane\, Singapore 575954.  \n\n\n\nRegister by Friday\, 31 July 2026. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMember’s price is subsidised. To access the member only price\, join us as a member today. \n\n\n\n\nBecome a Member Today\n\n\n\n\nPlease make sure you are qualified to buy your ticket. Tickets are not refundable. If you are not an alumnus\, we will cancel your ticket purchase and we will not refund you the purchase price.

SUMMARY:East Meets West: The Science and Wisdom of Wellness and Longevity
DESCRIPTION:Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is one of the world’s oldest systems of healthcare\, with a history spanning thousands of years.  Rather than focusing solely on symptoms or disease\, TCM views health as a state of balance and harmony within the body and between the individual and their environment. \n\n\n\nJoin us for an engaging and insightful conversation with seasoned Singaporean practitioner Dr. Zhang Lei and the Harvard Club of Singapore’s own Peter Lam as we explore how Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine approach health and longevity from very different yet complementary perspectives. \n\n\n\nTopics include: \n\n\n\n1.⁠ ⁠Understanding the Foundations of TCM \n\n\n\n\nThe core concepts of Qi\, Blood\, Yin and Yang\n\n\n\nHow TCM views health\, disease\, and aging\n\n\n\nWhy prevention and balance are central to the TCM philosophy\n\n\n\n\n2.⁠ ⁠East Meets West \n\n\n\n\nHow TCM and Western Medicine assess health and diagnose imbalances differently\n\n\n\nThe TCM concept of the kidneys as the foundation of vitality and healthy aging\n\n\n\nWhy digestive health is considered by TCM to be the cornerstone of long-term wellness\n\n\n\nHow to leverage the strengths of Eastern and Western approaches and what are the practical strategies\n\n\n\n\nCome with any specific questions and join us for a thought-provoking discussion on achieving optimal health with the best of both worlds. \n\n\n\nDr. Zhang Lei \n\n\n\nDr. Zhang Lei is a senior Singaporean physician with over 30 years of clinical experience\, specializing in integrative oncology and complex chronic conditions.  Dual-trained in Western Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine\, he combines both systems to deliver evidence-informed\, patient-centered care supporting patients through chemotherapy\, radiotherapy\, immunotherapy\, and long-term chronic disease management. \n\n\n\nHe holds a degree in Western Medicine from Tianjin Medical University and a Master’s degree from NUS Medical School.  He worked as a clinical researcher in oncology at Singapore General Hospital focusing on cancer treatment and molecular gene research\, and led acupuncture clinical research for Singapore’s first government-established acupuncture institute\, the Acupuncture Research Clinic\, the first pilot clinic at Ang Mo Kio Community Hospital set up by MOH in 1995 to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture. He was featured in the inaugural Singapore Book of Records as the only physician in Singapore holding both an NUS medical Master’s degree and a dual Chinese-Western Medicine qualification. \n\n\n\nPeter Lam  \n\n\n\nPeter Lam is a PhD candidate in Biological Sciences at Nanyang Technology University\, holds a Master’s degree from Harvard’s School of Public Health\, and is a Member of the Harvard Club of Singapore.  He is trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine\, giving him a unique background that bridges TCM and biomedical science.  His doctoral research focuses on gut health.
