BIOGRAPHY
Dr. Wang is currently a Professor at Li Ka Shing Institute of Health Sciences, Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. She received her B.S degree in 1996 from Nanjing University, China and majored in Environmental Chemistry. In 1998 she moved to USA to pursue her PhD degree at the Ohio State University (OSU) with the award of a Research Assistantship. She studied Molecular Virology under the mentorship of Dr. Louis Mansky and obtained her PhD in 2004. She then remained at OSU since 2004 for her Postdoctoral training under the mentorship of Dr. Denis Guttridge with the support of a Postdoctoral Researcher Fellowship from The Comprehensive Cancer Center, OSU and later a F32 Postdoctoral Fellowship Award from National Institute of Health, USA. In 2009, after a successful Postdoctoral training, she moved to Hong Kong for an Assistant Professor position at Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Faculty of Medicine, the Chinese University of Hong Kong. She then moved to Department of ORT and was soon promoted to Associate Professor in 2015 and Full Professor in 2020. Since 2004, she has developed life-long interest in studying gene regulatory mechanisms using skeletal muscle cells as a model system. Currently the main focus of her group is to study intrinsic and extrinsic regulation of skeletal muscle stem cells in muscle regeneration, diseases and aging.
