Celebration on the award of MOE Tier 2 grant! Also a warm welcome to our new RA Apoorva and postdoc Yuting, and visitor scientists Matt and Ali from the BRITElab at UWA. Looking forward to exciting collaboration on probing ovarian mechanics using optical elastography!

Joe shares about his exciting scientific journey in this interview article entitled The positives of being under "pressure" in JCB People & Ideas.

Chan Lab had a lovely end-of-year Xmas dinner jointly with the lab of Tetsuya Hiraiwa. Looking forward to exciting science and collaboration in the year to come!

Great effort from the lab who contributed to this article, where we hope to provide fresh perspectives in this thriving field.

Great fun to learn and network with the stem cell community in Singapore!
