**Continuous Glucose Monitoring: New Opportunities for Data-Driven Health Insights** Dr. Abhinit Kumar Ambastha Continuous glucose monitoring is transforming the way we understand metabolic health by providing detailed, real-time information on glucose dynamics in everyday life. Beyond diabetes care, continuous glucose monitoring offers new opportunities to study how glucose patterns relate to behaviour, lifestyle, and broader clinical outcomes. In this talk, Abhinit Kumar Ambastha will discuss how data science and machine learning can be applied to continuous glucose monitoring data to generate clinically meaningful insights. The talk will highlight the potential of wearable technologies to support earlier detection, personalised interventions, and a deeper understanding of human health. time: 7pm SGT Location: NUS - MD6 14 Medical Dr, #01-03, Singapore 117599 MD6-03-05 - CeTM - LEARNING RM (03-05) If you cannot find the room please reach out to +4369912068534 on whatsapp

Let's bedazzle some books while we discuss our April pick: Bloodguard by Cecy Robson! Book description: One hundred years. Tens of thousands of gladiators. And today, only one will rise… Everything in the Kingdom of Arrow is a lie. Leith of Grey thought coming to this new land and volunteering to fight in the gladiator arena—vicious, bloodthirsty tournaments where only the strongest survive—would earn him enough gold to save his dying sister. He thought there was nothing left to lose. He was wrong—and they took everything. His hope. His freedom. His very humanity. All Leith has left is his battle-scarred body, fueled by rage and hardened from years of fighting for the right to live another day. Then Leith meets Maeve, an elven royal who is everything he despises. Everything he should hate. Until the alluring princess offers him the one thing he needs most: a chance to win the coveted title of Bloodguard—and his freedom. But in a kingdom built on secrets and lies, hope doesn’t come cheap. Nor will his ultimate revenge… Event: Please bring your own book, journal, bookmarks, etc to bedazzle. If you have bedazzling supplies, please bring them as well. I will supply gems, glue, and picker tools, but if you have certain colors in mind, you may want to bring your own.

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
