Singapore discovers brain enzyme that activates dormant neural stem cells Singapore discovers brain enzyme that activates dormant neural stem cells 12 February 2021 | News Photo Credit: Freepik Singapores Duke-NUS Medical School researchers studying an enzyme in fruit fly larvae have found that it plays an important role in waking up brain stem cells from their dormant ‘quiescent’ state, enabling them to proliferate and generate new neurons. Published in the journal EMBO Reports, the ...

A brain enzyme activates dormant neural stem cells, revealing how defects in its gene could lead to neurodevelopmental disorders.

The three Rhinolophus species that have so far been shown to be carriers of coronaviruses linked to SARS-CoV-2 cannot be found in Singapore. - AFP SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): Horseshoe bats carrying coronaviruses very similar to the one that causes Covid-19 have been found outside China, so the pandemic may not necessarily have originated in the country, say scientists in a new study. It is likely that the virus arrived at the Chinese city of Wuhan from elsewhere, said Professor Wang Lin...

Credit: National University of Singapore Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have invented a new method of anti-counterfeiting called DeepKey. Developed in just eight months, this security innovation uses two dimensional (2D)-material tags and artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled authentication software. Compared to conventional anti-counterfeiting technologies, DeepKey works faster, achieves highly accurate results, and uses durable identification tags that are not eas...
