Dr. Yichun Wang is the Keating-Crawford Collegiate Professor of Biomolecular Engineering and an Assistant Professor in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Notre Dame. Her laboratory advances multiscale material–bio interactions to create next-generation therapeutic and diagnostic platforms, with an emphasis on engineered carbon nanostructures, therapeutic extracellular vesicles, and physiologically relevant 3D biomimetic culture systems for high-content/high-throughput screening and scalable biomanufacturing. Dr. Wang’s work has been recognized with multiple honors, including the NSF CAREER Award, NIH Maximizing Investigators’ Research Award (MIRA), the ACS PMSE Early Investigator Award, the BMES Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering Rising Star Award, and selection as a Biomaterials Science Emerging Investigator. She also serves as an editor for the section “Applied Biomaterials and Biotechnologies” of Chemical Engineering Journal, as well as a standing member of the NIH Innovations in Nanosystems and Nanotechnology (INN) Study Section.
