In this Brief Report we investigate a cosmological solution with singular scalar fields (a moduli field and the dilaton). We show that after quantizing the scalar fields the quantum corrections smooth out the singularities. In addition, we argue that the incorporation of nonperturbative quantum corrections form a dilaton potential.
