Haojie Wang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Medicine
BioHi, I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at Stanford Data Science, with a joint appointment at School of Medicine. I am interested in using insights from data science and remote sensing to address the challenges of sustainable development. I develops GeoAI approaches for detecting labor trafficking in supply chains, population health monitoring, natural hazard forecasting, and advancing understanding of how environmental risks interact with human health.

Jack Tzu-Chieh Wang, MD, PhD
Instructor, Adult Neurology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur primary research focus is understanding the molecular mechanisms of axonal degeneration and subsequent failure of axonal regeneration in the CNS. We have identified critical cellular pathways mediating axonal degeneration following acute neurological injuries including ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injury. Modulating these pathways presents a novel therapeutic strategy to protect vulnerable nerve fibers and enhance functional recovery in a multitude of acute CNS injuries and diseases.

Jie Wang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioDr. Jie Wang is deeply passionate about magnetic nanotechnology, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic particle imaging (MPI), magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), magnetic nanofluid hyperthermia (MNFH), magnetic biosensors, etc., for biomedical applications. His dissertation focuses on MRI-guided magnetic hyperthermia for cancer theranostics. Currently, his research interests include developing enzyme-activable nanoparticles for brain cancer theranostics and employing multi-modal imaging modalities to investigate the interaction between nanoparticles and biosystems (nano-bio interaction) within tumor microenvironment.

Li Wang
Assistant Professor of Biology
BioLi is a developmental neurobiologist with interdisciplinary training in genomics, proteomics, and neuroscience. His research seeks to understand how cellular and synaptic diversity arises during human brain development and evolution, and how these same mechanisms may be hijacked in diseases such as brain cancer.
Li received his B.S. from Fudan University in China, where he studied synaptic plasticity during critical periods in the visual cortex. During his Ph.D. with Dr. Huda Zoghbi at Baylor College of Medicine, Li explored the molecular basis of neurodevelopmental disorders, uncovering how mutations in key proteins like SHANK3 and MeCP2 disrupt neural function. His postdoctoral work with Dr. Arnold Kriegstein at UCSF expanded this focus to human brain development at single-cell resolution. He generated multi-omic atlases and cross-species proteomic maps that revealed novel progenitor cell types and human-specific synapse maturation programs, with implications for cognition and brain cancer. Li directs the Human Brain Development Lab (https://www.liwanglab.org) at Stanford University, where he continues to investigate human brain development with a focus on stem cell lineages and synaptic diversity.
Li has received many awards, including the NIH K99/R00 Pathway to Independence Award, the Trainee Professional Development Award from the Society for Neuroscience, the Keystone Symposia Scholarship, the Dennis Weatherstone Predoctoral Fellowship from Autism Speaks, and the Dean’s Award for Excellence from Baylor College of Medicine.
