Biomembranomics: Structure, Techniques, and Applications

Hongda Wang is a principal investigator at the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry under the "100 Talents Program" of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, since 2008. He obtained his bachelor's degree from the Department of Molecular Biology, Jilin University, PRC, in 1995. He received his doctorate from the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, PRC, in 2000. He worked as a postdoctoral research associate at the Biodesign Institute, Arizona State University, USA, from 2001 to 2007, and served as a visiting professor there in 2008. He is also a winner of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars. His research interest is to study the structure and function of cell membranes by multiple single-molecule techniques, particularly atomic force microscopy, molecular recognition, imaging, and super-resolution fluorescence microscopy.
