Dr. Yong Wang is a Group Leader and Scientist at the Laboratory for Fluid Physics, Pattern Formation and Biocomplexity (LFPB) within the Department of Fluid Physics, Pattern Formation and Biocomplexity at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization in Göttingen, Germany. He joined the institute as a Research Scientist in March 2015 after completing postdoctoral research at UC Irvine from 2011-2015. His educational background includes a PhD in Engineering Thermal Physics from Xi'an Jiaotong University (2010), where he also earned dual bachelor's degrees in Process Equipment and Controlling Engineering and Applied Mathematics. He is also a Scientist at the German Centre for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK) since 2017 and a member of the American Physical Society since 2016. Dr. Wang's research spans interdisciplinary areas at the intersection of physics, biology, and engineering. His work primarily focuses on biofluidics and biomechanics with specific emphasis on heart modeling for personalized medicine, cilia coordinated flow in brain ventricles, and turbulent flow dynamics in human upper airways. He employs advanced computational methods including the Lattice Boltzmann Method, Finite Element methods, and Immersed Boundary Method, complemented by experimental techniques like Particle Image Velocimetry. His publication record demonstrates strong activity in computational biophysics, with recent work analyzing cardiac mechanics, cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and respiratory flow patterns. His research shows increasing integration of medical imaging technologies with computational modeling to address clinically relevant problems. Interdisciplinary Team Science Award, Institute for Clinical and Translational Science, University of California, Irvine, USA (2014) Distinguished Doctoral Dissertation of Xi'an Jiaotong University (2010) Provincial Distinguished Graduate of Shaanxi Province (2009) Multiple scholarships and honors from Xi'an Jiaotong University (2006-2009) Dr. Wang has successfully secured research funding including an XSEDE project as PI (2011-2012) and participation in NIH-funded research (2011-2015). He leads a research group with current members including postdoctoral researchers and has previously mentored numerous graduate students and researchers. His collaborative network spans multiple institutions including University Medical Center Göttingen, MPI for Biophysical Chemistry, University of Pittsburgh, and UC Irvine.
