Dr. Wang's research focuses on risk management, mathematical finance, dynamic pricing, Markov decision processes, response-adaptive clinical trials, and reinforcement learning. His work bridges theoretical statistics with practical applications in finance and healthcare.
His recent publications demonstrate a consistent focus on statistical methodologies applied to healthcare (particularly Alzheimer's research and clinical trials) and financial risk management. The dominant themes include Bayesian methods, adaptive trial designs, neurostimulation therapies, and actuarial risk modeling.
Dr. Wang has supervised 15 PhD and 15 Master's students. His research has been supported by multiple grants from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), including a recent $90,000 grant for work on statistical dependence models.
