Prof. Dr. Qiang Wang is a Vice President of the College of Agronomy. He completed his Ph.D. in Plant Biology at Iowa State University. Then, he became a postdoctoral fellow at Iowa State University (2010) and Virginia Tech (2011-2012). Since 2013, he has been a professor and doctoral supervisor at the College of Agronomy, Sichuan Agricultural University. His Scientific research projects include the National Natural Science Foundation of China General Project (2017-2020); the Sichuan Province Talent Project; the Sichuan Provincial Outstanding Youth Fund (2014-2016); and the Sichuan Agricultural University-launched special project to introduce high-end talents. He is a reserve candidate for academic and technical leaders in Sichuan Province and was selected for the provincial talent project. He has long been engaged in research on plant terpenoid metabolism and regulation. He has achieved a series of innovative results using functional genomics, biochemistry, molecular biology, botany, and other research methods to study the biosynthesis and metabolic regulation of terpenoid secondary metabolites in crops. He has published many papers in internationally renowned academic journals such as Plant Cell, Plant Journal, and Plant Physiology. His main research areas are plant secondary metabolism and stress responses.
