Dr. Wang received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Toronto in Mechanical Engineering, with a collaborative specialization in Biomedical Engineering. During his Ph.D. study, he developed micro/nano robotic platform technologies to study the mechanical properties of the cell. The multi-pole magnetic tweezer devices he developed was applied for intracellular mechanical measurement and biochemical sensing. From 2020 to 2023, he worked as a research fellow at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. He has explored using external-controlled microrobots to cause mechanical ablation of brain tumors.
