Molecular Toxicology in Caenorhabditis elegans

Dr. Dayong Wang is a professor at the Medical School, Southeast University, China. He obtained his Ph.D. from Peking University in 2001 and completed his post-doctoral training at the University of Toronto from 2002 to 2004. His research focuses on toxicology and pathology using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model animal, fields in which he has published more than 160 research articles.
