The College of Science is proud to announce the appointment of Professor Ling Xing Yi of NTU School of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology (CCEB), as Editor-in-Chief of the Publications Division of the American Chemical Society (ACS) Applied...
2 of our Ph.D students from Assistant Prof Wei Ma's lab published their papers in Plant Physiology in May and July this year. Yuzhou Yang first-authored “Transcription factor bZIP52 modulates Arabidopsis seed oil biosynthesis through interaction with WRINKLED1”...
In this series, Science@NTU gets to know the 2023 CoS valedictorians. They give a quick overview of their time in CoS, and also offer a few words of advice on transitioning into the next phase of life. Next up, we have Samantha Tan from the School of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology.
Convocation season is here again! In this series, Science@NTU gets to know the 2023 CoS valedictorians. Next up, we have Dyah Nafisah from the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences.

A team of scientists from the NTU School of Biological Sciences have found that ponatinib, a drug approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukaemia, has shown exceptional promise in stopping the growth of ALT-dependent cancerous cells.
A team of scientists from the NTU School of Biological Sciences have carried out research into how plants react to stressful conditions and devised a computational method that allows scientists to predict how plants will respond to complex environmental stresses. Their paper discussing their research and new computational method was recently accepted into the prestigious scientific journal, Nature Communications.
A team of scientists from the NTU School of Biological Sciences (SBS), led by Associate Professor Marek Mutwil, have shown that ursolic acid present in extracts from O. corymbosa is active against breast cancer cells. In a paper published in the Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, the team also succeeded in assembling a high-quality genome of O. corymbosa, and uncovered two genes involved in the biosynthesis of ursolic acid – thus paving the way for developing this valuable compound.
A team of scientists from NTU SBS, led by Nanyang Assistant Professor Li Yinghui, have uncovered new areas along protein pathways in diffuse large B-cell lymphomas that are potential sites for targeted cancer treatments, thereby reducing the risk of cancer relapses or refractory occurrences in patients.
Chan Luo Xi, an undergraduate from the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) in Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), has won the first Ling Yu Chich-Chen Siew Chee Award. The award was established by Professor Ling San, Acting...
