I am so very humbled to be featured by @eu_eeas on this #IWD23. Recognizing my work on the promotion of women in STEM in Singapore through the POWERS program funded by the @MOEsg. Together we will continue to build supportive community for #womenInSTEM in Singapore++

[European External Action Service - EEAS 🇪🇺 @eu_eeas]

Today, we not only remember women and girls in critical situations but also join #WomensDay celebrations to promote gender equality and women empowerment.

Let's spotlight #WomenInSTEM, the change makers who challenge stereotypes in Europe, globally and beyond! 🚀@AstroSamantha

Our lab has shown that protein nanocages can be used to formulate Pickering #nanoemulsions. Nanoemulsions are challenging to achieve due to the curvature of the oil droplets (smaller particles = higher curvature) but protein nanocages make it possible.

Stefan Salentinig and I joined force to write a review on the topic by invitation from Julie Champion. Read it on Current Opinion on Colloid and Interface Science: https://t.co/bpFMFvu9Wk.
There are more to be done to decipher the biophysics and to explore their applications!

[Sierin Lim @BeANsLabNTU]

The work in my lab was spearheaded by @MridulSarker when he was my PhD student, together with Nikodem @Softmatsg Tomczak. We also thank @KakuTanvi for her assistance in preparing the figures in the paper.

[Sierin Lim @BeANsLabNTU]

@KimInSingapore @SCELSE_SG @ntusbs Congratulations Kim! Great timing for the announcement! It’s great to work with you on @WomenAtNTU and POWERS

[Sierin Lim @BeANsLabNTU]

@ProfTomEllis Thanks Tom! I’ll be happy to provide more info :)

We have been working on protein cage as MRI contrast agent. This time we thoroughly characterised the cores of magnetoferritin and show its use in enhancing T2 contrast of macrophages. The project is a collaboration with @vpdravid group at @nuancecenter https://t.co/VNXFCUHQ8F
