Dr. Huaxiao “Adam” Yang is an assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of North Texas since 9.2020. Dr. Yang obtained his PhD at the Clemson University, Department of Bioengineering, and completed his postdoctoral training at the Stanford University Cardiovascular Institute. He has published over 30 peer-reviewed publications in European Heart Journal, Circulation, ACS Nano, Advanced Functional Materials, PNAS, Developmental Cell, Cardiovascular Research, Biofabrication, Stem Cells, Stem cell Reports, Research, and etc. His research lab focuses on establishing the next-generation tissue engineering system for modeling and treating cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The next-generation tissue engineering system will revolutionize the understanding and therapies on CVDs through synergizing the emerging biomedical technologies, such as 3D cell culture/organoid, biofabrication, organ-on-chip, CRISPR genome-editing, patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells, and single-cell OMICS.
