In 1982, Professor Ng launched Singapore’s first in-vitro fertilization program, leading to the birth of Asia’s first test-tube (IVF) baby in May 1983. He achieved another milestone in 1989 by developing the world’s first SUZI (sub-zona insemination) baby, by developing a revolutionary micro-injection technique which resulted in the first baby to be born through this technique. In 1993, he advanced reproductive medicine further by developing ICSI (though the credit for the first publication went to the Belgium team) and by delivering Asia’s first ICSI baby.

With a special interest in infertility, gynaecological laparoscopy, and hormonal disturbances, Professor Ng has advised the Ministry of Health, Singapore, on infertility issues.
