Professional Biography

My primary responsibilities are in undergraduate teaching. I teach Microbial Physiology (8153092, 3 credits) each fall semester for biotechnology and biological science majors. I also teach Research progress in Advanced Microbiology (2 credits) and Progress in Life Science Research (2 credits) each spring semester for Master and PhD student.

My research interests are on biochemical metabolism and pathogenic molecular mechanism of pathogenic microorganisms. Prof. Wang’s lab now focuses on: (1) Bacterial Functional Genomics: Bacterial Fatty Acid Synthesis Diversity and Fatty Acid synthesis Mechanism. (2) Bacterial Physiology and Biochemistry: Relationship between Quorum-sensing (QS) and Fatty Acid Biosynthesis in Gram Negative microorganism.

Area of Expertise

Bacterial Functional Genomics;Bacterial Physiology and Biochemistry; Bacterial interactions with plants; Fatty acid biosynthesis; Quorum sensing;
