She was also awarded the National Medicine Excellence Awards 2008 - National Outstanding Clinician Award for her exceptional contributions on the clinical front and the Lee Foundation NHG-NUHS Lifetime Achievement Award 2013. Prof Yap's research interest is in the immunology of kidney diseases, in particular childhood nephrotic syndrome. She has been the principal investigator in grants totaling more than $5 million and her research group was the first to describe the role of interleukin-13 in childhood minimal change nephrotic syndrome. Her group has also developed an interleukin-13 overexpression animal model of nephrotic syndrome in order to further study the molecular mechanisms of the disease. Her current work is focusing on a serious form of nephrotic syndrome, namely focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and her group has identified an immunological abnormality in patients with this disease that predicts response to treatment with an anti-B lymphocyte monoclonal antibody, resulting in prevention of progression to kidney failure.
