معرفی
Yang Wang, MD, PhD is a Professor in the Department of Radiology at the Medical College of Wisconsin, specializing in neuroimaging and cerebrovascular function. His research focuses on advanced MRI techniques such as arterial spin labeling (ASL) and resting-state functional MRI (fMRI), with applications to neurological disorders like Alzheimer’s, glaucoma, and long-COVID. He explores how cerebrovascular mechanisms influence brain health across the lifespan, particularly in aging populations and chronic conditions such as hemodialysis and sports-related trauma.
His work integrates computational neuroscience and collaborative multisite studies, as seen in large-scale projects like the ENIGMA-Lifespan Working Group. Key areas include brain-age prediction, neurovascular coupling, and the impact of mindfulness interventions on neurovascular pathways. Dr. Wang’s research bridges clinical neuroimaging with translational medicine, emphasizing methodological innovation in functional connectivity and perfusion analysis.
Publications span high-impact journals in neuroscience, radiology, and gerontology, demonstrating expertise in cerebrovascular phenotyping and neuroimaging biomarkers. Collaborations include multidisciplinary teams addressing aging, chronic disease, and neurodegenerative processes.
