Shaomeng Wang is a Chinese-American chemist currently the Warner-Lambert/Parke-Davis Professor in Medicine at University of Michigan[1] and a former Co-Editor-in-Chief at American Chemical Society's Journal of Medicinal Chemistry. A cited expert in his field,[2] his interests are synthesis and design of moleculars, neurological diseases and computational and informatics.[1] He was Elected as Fellow at the National Academy of Inventors in 2014.[3] Dr. Wang was named to the AAAS Fellows Section on Pharmaceutical Sciences in 2019, [4] and is the recipient of the Division of Medicinal Chemistry Award 2020 American Chemical Society.[5]

Education

edit

He earned his B.S. in Chemistry at Peking University and his Ph.D at Case Western Reserve University. He later began teaching at Georgetown University and University of Michigan Medical School.[6]
