Dr. Greg Wang is currently Associate Professor at UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center & Dept of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill, NC, USA. He received the PHD degree from University of California, San Diego, followed by a postdoctoral training at Rockefeller University, New York. Dr. Wang’s research programs focus on fundemental understandings of how our genetic information (DNA) is stored and interpretted when cells respond to the developmental and environmental changes. Disruption or deregulation of such a process can severely affect normal development and formation of blood cells, and is often responsible for causing various blood cancers. Understanding the molecular underpinnings also allows development of new therapeutic approaches, paving a way to clinical trials in future. Dr. Wang’s research is funded by a grant of Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Scholar. For more information, please visit his lab website: www.gregwanglab.com
