Meet the current members of the Cardiometabolic Research Team

The Wang lab applies single-molecule fluorescence biophysical, quantitative biochemical, structural, and genetics approaches to unravel the intricate relationships between structure, dynamics and function in complex dynamic biological systems. Our primary goal is to understand the dynamic mechanisms of cytosolic and mitochondrial protein synthesis and how they are dysregulated in human diseases.

We are broadly interested in how energy is regulated on a systems level during infection. Our current projects are focused on understanding the role that adipose tissue plays in the response to influenza and SARS-CoV2.

Meet our pets.

We know how to have fun!
