Yidan Wang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neonatal and Developmental Medicine
BioI joined Dr. John Benjamin’s lab to study the heterogeneity of neutrophils across developmental stages and during bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). My research focuses on characterizing neutrophil subsets and investigating the contributions of distinct neutrophil subsets to the development of BPD.
My predoctoral training was completed at Northwestern University under the co-mentorship of Dr. Harris Perlman and Dr. Deborah Winter. I studied the heterogeneity and functions of monocyte-lineage cells and macrophages in mouse synovial tissue under both steady-state and inflammatory arthritis conditions. -
Yiyu Wang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Yiyu Wang is a T32 postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Anesthesiology, Stanford School of Medicine. Her research combines computational models and neuroimaging techniques to characterize the neural architecture underlying complex human experiences in emotion and pain. Her current work focuses on leveraging deep learning, foundation models, and explainable AI to improve neuroimaging-based markers as well as multi-modal markers of chronic pain.

Dr. Zhiyong Wang
Visiting Scholar, Genetics
BioDr. Wang is the acting director of the Department of Plant Biology, Carnegie Institution for Science, and a professor by courtesy of the Department of Biology, Stanford University. He is currently an associate editor of Molecular Cellular Proteomics, and editorial board member of Molecular Plant. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and recipient of the Humboldt Research Prize.
Dr. Wang obtained his Ph.D. in 1998 from UCLA, where he cloned the plant circadian clock gene CCA1. He did his postdoctoral research at the Salk Institute, where he studied the brassinosteroid signaling mechanism mediated by the BRI1 receptor kinase. Since joining Carnegie in 2001, his research has illustrated the receptor kinase signaling pathway that links the BRI1 receptor kinase to the BZR1 transcription factor and brassinosteroid-responsive genes in the Arabidopsis genome. He further demonstrated how the steroid signaling pathway integrates at the molecular level with other hormonal pathways, light signaling pathways, nutrient-sensing pathways, immunity pathways, and the circadian clock, to coordinately regulate plant growth and development. His lab uses combinations of genomic and proteomic approaches to understand how cellular signals are transduced and integrated through posttranslational modifications (e.g. phosphorylation and O-Glycosylation) and protein-protein interactions. His studies are elucidating the molecular mechanisms that control plant growth and mediate responses to environmental changes. -
Ziwei Wang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiation Therapy
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current work focuses on establishing preclinical platforms to rapidly validate the functional impact of genetic alterations in tumors using both cell and genetically engineered mouse models. We hope this system can accelerate the discovery and translation of novel cancer therapies to patients.
