Dr. Nian Wang has been a member of the Indiana University School of Medicine Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences faculty since Oct. 2020. He received his Ph.D. degree at Chinese Academy of Sciences. Before he joined IU, he worked at Duke University, first as a research associate and then as an assistant professor at the Center for In Vivo Microscopy (CIVM). Dr. Wang’s interests include developing novel MRI acquisition and reconstruction methods for various brain diseases and musculoskeletal disorders.
