Prof. William Bowers, well known for synthesis of 1st insect juvenile hormone, keeps insects at an immature state of development and prevents reproduction. He also discovered anti-juvenile hormone from plants, causes insects to become adults too soon and acts as an insecticide.

#ISCE_APACE@ChemEcol_org Hope everyone has arrived home safely & some are probably back at work! I know some who are extending their stay through tomorrow. lucky you! Same goes for our online colleagues! Hope it was a blast! Here are some memories! 🧵Just scroll! Day 1
@JunyongSong3@ManishKumar_22 oh wow really haha usually teh tarik or thai milk tea can be this orange-ish. but this toa, never heard about it. where did you guys get it from?
Bringing some colorful frogs to the last day of in-person presentations at #ISCE_APACE@ChemEcol_org 🐸🧪
What an inspiring week! Still have some more virtual talks to catch up later 🤓
Thanks @AlvinHee_MY for organizing this amazing meeting in an amazing city! 📷 by @illy_husna
