This is One North Stories, an A*START CENTRAL Podcast
Regenerative medicine to cure diabetes? BetaLife is working to make that a reality.
A spin-off the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB), A*STAR, BetaLife is developing cell replacement therapy using human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) based pancreatic beta cells – cells in our body that secrete insulin.
This technology could dramatically transform and improve the lives of diabetes patients who are highly dependent on insulin injections. This therapy is targeted as a curative treatment for Type 1 diabetes, other forms of insulin-dependent diabetes, as well as a treatment option for Type 2 diabetes patients.
Adrian Teo and Natasha Ng, the two scientific co-founders join to share the founding story.

Making the previously impossible, possible. Loong Wang joins to share about QDX. The Singapore based start-up is has built a massive compute platform leveraging hyperscaler level hardware for quantum molecular dynamics. They predict and model how molecules move and interact through time and space.
The first application is drug discovery. They use AI to screen billions of candidate compounds down to thousands or hundreds. Then, their quantum mechanical computation comes in, modeling the physical interaction of the protein and small molecule. The whole point is to ‘rapidly’ screen potential candidates so physical experiments can focus on the most promising candidates as early as possible.
Loong and QDX are just getting started. They would love to grow and become the largest private drug company in the world.
Beyond drug discovery, the QDX platform can help anyone who needs to know how molecules interact, including material science. QDX is open to collaboration and getting the tool into the hands of the community.

Yang Liu and TY Shao join to share about MetaTrustLabs. The Singapore based start-up is building security tools and code auditing services for Web3, protecting information, data and most importantly money as the web decentralizes across the blockchain. Yang Liu represented the team through the Slingshot 2023 competition at SWITCH, making the finals in the Transformative Digital Technologies category.
Founded out of Nanyang Technological University (NTU), they have built AI based platform technology to assist developers understand vulnerabilities in their code (MetaScan) plus continuous security monitoring for smart contract vulnerabilities (MetaScout). The software is deployed and is used by companies and the Whitehat hacker community as well.
The cofounders are planning big things for the company. Security is eternal, but with blockchain and AI are looking to grow beyond as well.

Gayathri Natarajan joins to share about KrossLinker. The Singapore based start-up that is advancing insulation through materials innovation. Specifically, they have developed a production platform for aerogel manufacturing which enables this amazing material to be produced more cost effective. Their first application is for cold chain solutions and are also developing solutions for the Built Environment, first with surface paints and then looking to get into specialized applications. Gayathri represented the company through the Slingshot 2023 competition at SWITCH, making the finals in the Consumer Media, Goods & Services category.
Gayathri, who has a Chemical Engineering background, wanted to take technology to market. In 2019, she joined the Entrepreneur First program in Singapore, with a loose outline of trying to do something at the intersection of materials and energy. She met her co-founders, decided on trying to solve the Aerogel production problem and founded KrossLinker.

Moores Law may be ending, but Richard Feynman told us: There’s Plenty of Room at the Bottom. Let me subtly add: there’s plenty of physics there too, both for silicon and beyond.
Where is the future of compute going? Silicon? Yes, that's the near future. Beyond Silicon? Beyond 2 states per bit? Workload specific compute? We're already there, somewhat.
This episode is trying something a little different. Deep Tech being cooked up in Singapore's labs. A new switching device, the Skyrmion Magnetic Tunnel Junction. It's electrically switched, fabricated on a silicon substrate and oh yeah, has an ultra low switching energy, is non-volatile and can have more than two states per cell.
Join us for a conversation with James Lourembam, Ho Pin, and Chen Shaohai of IMRE, an A*STAR Research Institution. This is instigated by the team's (led by Anjan Soumyanarayanan), work being published in the journal Nature.
Prepare to have your mind blown. Ok maybe not yet, but my colleagues have fantastic results to share with the World.
Find the original article at Nature.
