We love doing reactions in water, here we show a click-like reaction that runs best in water without using strained alkynes/alkenes, and is amenable for bioconjugation with DNA and peptides on @NatureComms. @ResearchFoS Check it out nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

🔬Microplastics are showing up in coral reef sediment & water across Singapore's urban reefs (🧴🎣). Our study shows abundance is associated with fine sediments & low water energy, not coral cover or reef rugosity — sheltered reefs may be most at risk! 🪸 doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.…

🆕📢 We are excited to present the first multi-matrix study of MP in Singapore’s coral reefs.
Our low detected levels show that urban reefs aren’t always MP hotspots! 🪸✨

Atom-swapping in a saturated heterocycle? We report a photocatalytic transmutation strategy in @Nature that exchanges O within an oxetane for N, S, C & even dual atoms, simplifying access to a variety of non-aromatic cyclic pharmacophores & enabling late-stage editing of complex bioactive molecules. Great DFT insights from @XZhangChem. @ChemNUS @ResearchFoS @NUSResearch #skeletalediting #atomswap #photocatalysis #oxetanes #azetidines #thietanes #cyclobutanes #drugdiscovery nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Measuring the localization of a drug and its release in nano drug delivery is a challenge. In our latest publication, we measure what others assume. Congrats, Namrata, Yan, Flavio, Roberta, Alberto & Steffen! Read the full story at: authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti… #TheWackerLab #NUS

Here is a very detailed examination on how pigmentation in the cuticle of a butterfly wing scale changes the density and refractive index of chitin and, thus, also alters structural color. rdcu.be/eyUwS

🌀🌊🔥 Refuge Trifecta! – this new paper by our PhD student Joel Tan shows how intertidal snails (Nerita undata) seek out pits to escape from heat, waves, and predators.🐌

Thrilled to share our latest work in @Nature in collaboration with the Davis Group at @RosFrankInst & @OxfordChemistry. We developed a 'cap & glycosylate' strategy that directly transforms native sugars into glycosides & glycoproteins! @ChemNUS #glycotime nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Our paper on metabarcoding mosquitoes with MinION sequencing of bulk samples for vector surveillance frontiersin.org/articles/10.… led by @LohKRebecc & @TyTan95 with @Huiqing_y et al.
Unveiling our paper in Frontiers of Tropical Diseases @FrontInfectDis! We bridge the gap between #Nanopore #MinION and #Illumina sequencing for vector surveillance. The results of DNA metabarcoding #Mosquito 🦟bulk samples on both platforms is a remarkable 93% congruent!
