Professor Yonggang Wang, graduated from Department of Modern Physics of USTC majoring in Nuclear Electronics in 1987, obtained master’s degree in Nuclear Physics in Jun. 1990 and Ph.D degree in Dec. 1997. His research work mainly focused on particle detectors and electronics, including nuclear signal processing technology. From 1996 to 1998, he participated the international cooperative project with VUB-Vrije Universiteit in Brussel, and developed the high-performance data acquisition and processing system for VUB-PET scanner. In 1999, he worked at VUB in Belgium continuing the research work on the development of new readout electronics for APD array based PET detectors. In 2000, he worked at IMEC Microelectronics Research Center, in Belgium, doing research work on chip design in wireless communication domain. In 2005, Wang was promoted as a full professor in the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). He is now advising a research group, named as Real-time Tech Laboratory in USTC, doing research work on the key techniques related with high performance real-time information processing systems.
