Researchers at NTU’s School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences are attempting to implement large-scale “upcycling” of plastic waste, using renewable energy to convert it into chemical feedstocks.
Using a two-dimensional material, physicists can generate and control exciton polaritons, particles composed of light and matter, at ambient temperatures.
An international team of scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) and Waseda University in Japan have found that fermented soybean waste, or okara, could improve fat metabolism and mitigate effects of diet-induced obesity.
A key technical challenge in creating new sulphur-based medicines has been overcome by scientists at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), leading to the prospect of many new therapeutic ‘weapons’ in the fight against disease and illness.
On 29 January, NTU College of Science (CoS) invited prospective students to tune into an online Career Talk via livestream and to bring with them their burning questions on university life in NTU, an academic path in Science, and what career prospects they could have...
The inaugural CoS Challenge was held in January 2022, receiving a warm reception from the CoS community. Leading up to the competition, CoS staff, faculty and alumni came together in late 2021 to contribute to the pool of questions known as the “Knowledge Bank”....
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected everyone, but lower income households bore the brunt of the impact. According to The Straits Times, more than half of households earning less than $1,000 reported disruptions to their income during the circuit breaker in mid-2020. It...
Using numerical simulations, two physicists have explained some long-standing anomalies in the behaviour of sound waves in disordered materials.
We would like to express our heartfelt congratulations to all of the Nanyang Awards 2021. Well done and keep up the good work!
The newly-launched Master of Science in Chemical Sciences and Instrumentation programme covers advanced chemistry concepts, instruments, data science, and technopreneurship. We interview a professor and a student in the programme to learn more about it.
