Our recent work published in Advanced Science looks into why some cancer cells in circulation can survive the harsh mechanical constriction of narrow capillaries during metastasis. We termed these as mechanoresilient cancer cells. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Announcing our workshop featuring renowned researchers in wearable technology. See below list of speakers who will be here in person. While we have reached capacity for in-person registration, you can still register for our virtual option through Zoom. See you this Friday!

Today’s Wearable Technology Workshop organized by iHealthtech, National University of Singapore was nothing short of spectacular - a potent fusion of brilliant speakers, groundbreaking talks, and an incredibly participatory audience.

It was a great honor to deliver the plenary lecture at the IEEE EMBC 2023 in Sydney. Thank you Nigel Lovell and the organizers for the invitation and my dear friend Metin Akay for chairing my talk. It was a great opportunity to share my translational experience in wearable tech.

Always a joy, as an advisor and mentor, to see my students not only excel in their PhD research, but also demonstrating workable solution that is addressing an important need. Congrats Jiaming and team and enjoy the brand new iPhone prize!

Very excited to share our latest Nature Reviews Bioengineering Nature Reviews Bioengineering article. Wanted to say a big “thank you” to Chief Editor Christine Horejs for the opportunity. Her professionalism in handling our piece have made it a really wonderful experience!

Can adversity make you stronger? Prof Lim Chwee Teck (CT Lim) and his team at NUS iHealthtech suggest that cancer cells surviving mechanical stresses are more prone to metastasis. news.nus.edu.sg/when-cancer-ta…

New study by iHealthtech, National University of Singapore shows that cancer cells which are resilient to physical stresses may multiply more rapidly to form secondary tumours. Targeting these cells could slow or stop the spread of cancer! #NUSResearch #CancerResearch #metastasis news.nus.edu.sg/when-cancer-ta…

Lanfeng Liang from CT Lim Confinement Mechanobiology Lab at MBI used a microfluidic capillary bed-on-a-chip to reveal how highly metastatic breast cancer cells can maintain their motility and when exposed to capillary flow, due to high expression of the shear stress mechanosensor protein TRPM7 🤽

Thanks The Straits Times, NUS, NUS Research for highlighting our work!

Check out a recent interview in which researchers (CT Lim NUS) behind a new "artificial gut" explain how their device will allow scientists to gain deeper insights into the biome that exists there—and how dysregulation can lead to disease. 👇 ow.ly/gnia50QLr6F

ICBME is one of the major biomedical engineering conferences in Asia organised by the Biomedical Engineering Society, Singapore and NUS, and has a long esteemed history dating back to 1983. We are calling for abstracts. Check out our website and speakers: icbme2024.org.

Thank you Straits Times for the article and extremely grateful, honored and humbled for this prestigious recognition by the Royal Society. 🙏 straitstimes.com/singapore/nus-…

Thank you, Fumio, and the organizers at #MechanoBioKyoto for the invite. It was a fantastic symposium, learning new things and making new friends!

Wonderful Plenary seminar this morning by Prof Lim! Thank you CT Lim for the inspiring talk and sharing valuable insights on the clinical translation of healthcare technologies!"

Honored to be finally admitted as a Fellow of the Royal Society. A unique part of the ceremony is signing the 362-year-old Charter Book, alongside renowned scientists like Newton, Darwin, and Churchill. This is thanks to my incredible team of students, postdocs and collaborators.

Due to numerous requests, we have extended our abstract submission deadline to 15 Aug 2024. All are welcome to submit!

Thank you Biomedical Picture of the Day BPoD for highlighting our work.

Check out our review article in Nature Electronics on bridging the digital-physical divide in the metaverse and how we bring the sense of touch to VR/AR/XR using haptics & wearable technologies for medical & industrial training & education. rdcu.be/d4hOL
