Learn more about the Meng Wang Lab!

"I am a MD PhD graduate from University of Cambridge, UK. My PhD was with Professor Michael Neuberger at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology focusing on B cell immunology.

I completed my residency clinical training at King’s College Hospital in London, followed by hematology specialist fellowship in Cambridge. During this time, I was awarded the Cancer Research UK Clinician Scientist Fellowship to conduct my postdoc with Professor KJ Patel and Professor George Vassiliou. I studied aldehydes as a metabolic source of DNA damage in blood stem cells that can cause leukemia and ageing of the bone marrow.

Following my postdoc and completion of clinical training, I moved to Cornell University to start my own lab.

I am a member of the Royal College of Physicians, and a Fellow of the Royal College of Pathology."
