Dr. Paul C. Wang is the Director of the Molecular Imaging Laboratory and a Professor in the Department of Radiology at Howard University, Washington DC. Dr. Wang received a PhD degree in applied radiation physics from MIT in 1982. In the early 1980’s, he started his research career in MRI at the University of Kentucky and Georgetown University. During his tenure at Howard University since beginning 1989, he has established the Biomedical NMR Laboratory, which later became the Molecular Imaging Laboratory, to promote multidisciplinary research using NMR imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy, optical imaging, and nuclear medicine imaging techniques for biomedical research applications. The Molecular Imaging Laboratory has been a synergetic center for promoting multidisciplinary biomedical research for Howard University and neighboring research institutions including Children’s National Medical Center, Georgetown University, Catholic University, and several biotech companies. Dr. Wang is responsible for coordinating research projects, providing technical support, and supervising the operation of the Molecular Imaging Lab as a university imaging core facility. His research interests include in vitro and in vivo NMR; NMR imaging and spectroscopy studies of diseases including cancer, heart disease, and neurological diseases using animal models; NMR studies of multidrug interaction; optical imaging and molecular imaging of cells and small animals; applications of nanotechnology in medicine, and nuclear medicine research. Dr. Wang has been the principal investigator of multiple US federal- and industry-funded projects, including four multi-years training grants. He has trained many undergraduate, graduate, and medical students as well as postdoctoral fellows, junior faculty and radiology residents. He has taught medical imaging physics at Georgetown University and Howard University for over 30 years. Dr. Wang was a Visiting Professor at the Chinese National Center for Nanoscience and Technology in Beijing. He has been involved in promoting a dialogue between the US and Chinese governments in nanomedicine and nanotoxicity research. Dr. Wang is also a Chair Professor in the College of Science and Engineering, Fu Jen Catholic University.
