معرفی
Dr. Luguang Wang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological Engineering at Utah State University (USU). He holds a PhD in Biological and Ecological Engineering from Oregon State University (2020) and a BS in Microbiology from Shandong University (2013). Prior to joining USU, he served as a postdoctoral fellow at Johns Hopkins University and a research associate at Oregon State University.
His research focuses on engineering bioelectrochemical systems for sustainability, including hydrogen production from waste, CO₂ capture, and biosystem modeling using machine learning. He teaches courses such as BENG 5600/6600: Downstream Processes, BENG 1200: SolidWorks for Biological Engineers, and BENG 4880: Biological Engineering Design II.
Dr. Wang leads the Microbial Electrochemical Technology (MET) Lab, which explores electroactive bacteria to address global challenges in energy, water, and food sustainability. Current research topics include microbial electrolysis cells for hydrogen production, bioelectrochemical CO₂ capture, and machine learning-driven biosystem modeling.
He mentors four graduate students in Biological Engineering: Burak Kilinc, Hao Cao, Hayden Harrison, and Amal Elsyed. His lab emphasizes interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative applications of bioelectrochemical systems.
