Professor Ping Wang is a leading academic at the Blizard Institute, part of Queen Mary University of London, within the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry. His work bridges immunology, molecular biology, and translational medicine.
- M.D., Suzhou Medical College, China (1983)
- M.S., Shanghai Cancer Institute, China (1986)
- Ph.D., Karolinska Institute (1992)
Research Interests: Professor Wang's work focuses on the regulation of antigen processing and presentation via mechanisms like tapasin's role in MHC I peptide assembly. He pioneers nano-vaccine development for chronic infections (e.g., HBV) by engineering ER membrane particles to deliver antigens and cytokines directly to T cells. His team also investigates intrinsic regulation of B and T cells in autoimmunity and pathogen response, and Egr genes in lymphocyte function, including their control of immune tolerance and autoimmune disease prevention via Bcl6 and Batf regulation.
Article Trends: His publications span immunology, cancer, virology, and biomedical engineering, with a focus on Egr transcription factors, nano-vaccine systems, antigen presentation mechanisms, and T/B cell interactions in autoimmunity and chronic disease. Recent work includes Tfh cell biology, oncolytic virus therapy optimization, and energy-efficient medical devices.
Teaching: He instructs bioscience and medical students in membrane biology, tumor immunology, adaptive immunity, and transgenic models, while mentoring PhD candidates in immunological research.
Funding: His work is supported by Arthritis Research UK and the Medical Research Council (MRC), enabling clinical trials for HBV therapeutic vaccines and autoimmune disease studies.
