Could there be a better way to end the semester than a hot pot ? Even better, our amazing alumni joined us, turning dinner into a mini reunion filled with stories. It was a perfect mix of chaos and laughter accompanying the meal. A highlight from this event (apart from the random combinations of sauces and disagreements over the number and type of soup bases to choose) was definitely legendary noodle dance!
A nice-getaway from the usual grind as we bond over our lab's favourite activity (and no it is not research but), food!
Do you think that's it? Nope, we went to visit a nearby exhibit called the Unnatural history museum at the National Design Centre to look at Singapore's history from an unconventional angle. From the odd (and honestly slightly creepy) looking robot to a merlion 'fossil' , we learnt more about Singapore heritage and how it has changed throughout the decades.
And we are not done with the day yet. The night is still young after all, as Dr. P says. So we went on a hunt for desserts to end the day. We ended up at a street selling mainly desserts at the back of Bugis Square and went for round 2 with a whole array of delicious Chinese desserts, from mango sago pomelo to tang yuan. Was certainly a day where all of us exceeded our calorie intake!

We celebrated the successful conclusion of our project, “Using Black Soldier Flies in Food Waste Management and Sustainable Food Production in Urban Systems,” with the most important invention - artisanal pizzas.
Our wonderful collaborators joined for good food, good science talk, and the kind of laughter you only get after months of experiments, troubleshooting, and data chaos.
And of course—the star of the evening was the legendary deep-dish pizza, winning everyone’s hearts (and stomachs).
Cheers to teamwork, innovation, and projects that bring both impact and pizza!

Once a Reprolab member, always part of the lab family 🧬✨ Our alumni never really leave — they just bring back more stories (and data!) to our gatherings.
We took a leisurely lab walk through the Botanic Gardens, spotting scenic lights and the occasional curious bugs 🐞. The perfect mix of nature, science, and laughter!
For a team that spends most days studying insects, it was nice to meet a few of our “subjects” in the wild!
We wrapped up the evening with a cozy dinner, good food, and even better conversations with old friends who joined. Always great to unwind, laugh, and appreciate the people behind the science.

Congratulations to all our ReproLab graduates. we’re so proud of every one of you!
From juggling experiments, exams, lectures, multiple presentations, and report drafts that multiplied like flies, You have done it all. And guess what? It all paid off beautifully.
We miss you already, but remember: once a ReproLab member, always a ReproLab member. The lab feels different without your chaos, laughter, and last-minute “help me” messages.

Our Mozzy enthusiast (Weilin) arrived proudly holding a bouquet of chickens. Yes, chickens. No, we don’t understand it either. Yes, it’s becoming a personality trait.
Weilin’s iconic "Wall of Thoughts" continues to grow (yes, everyone is still adding their philosophical nonsense)
Our dearest mozzy bud (Agabus) is graduating and heading straight into teaching! From being guided in the lab to guiding students, Good luck kids! your new teacher has excellent eyesight for spotting mistakes. after all, hours of dissecting mosquitoes really trained him well.
Yong Xun Liang (aka Gary) officially an RA at Reprolab, unofficially the lab’s forever-child. It took a whole team (including Prof NP) to get him into his graduation gown.

What a tossing good time we had at ReproLab’s Chinese New Year celebration! 🍊🧨 We kicked things off with a vibrant Yu Sheng session—everyone throwing their wishes for a prosperous year into the air (literally)! The higher the toss, the bigger the blessings, right? 🙌
Our wishes were as wild as our lab! Some hoped for a flood of papers 📄, others wanted more insects in their traps 🦗 (yes, please!). 🎉 Whether it's scientific success or more bugs to study, we’re all set to crush 2025 with even more breakthroughs, fun, and a little bit of luck sprinkled in. 🌟 Let’s make this year legendary! 💥

A wonderful Japanese summer spent with friends, research, and of course, bugs. Well done everyone who presented at this year's International Congress of Entomology held in Kyoto!

A glimpse into Reprolab's busy month of February:
1. A festive holiday to kickstart the month! Can't miss doing a louhei for Lunar New Year to welcome prosperity.
2. What better way to mark the start of NUS's recess week than a lab walk? It was a busy hike (especially for the cameras XD) from Kent Ridge Park to Vivo City filled with spiders, Tussock moth caterpillars, and a rewarding dinner at Vivo where we had a farewell dinner for our RA Yong Jen. All the best Yong Jen!
