Biography
Tao Wang is affiliated with the National Institute of Biological Sciences, Beijing, Beijing, China, where research focuses on the molecular basis of cardiovascular diseases, particularly genetic vascular conditions and Notch signalling in the cardiovascular system. Expertise includes establishing and characterising patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) models to identify therapeutic targets. Wang serves on the Managing Editorial Board of "Frontiers in Bioscience" as Managing Editor of the special issue "Signalling Pathways in Cardiovascular Function and Diseases," and is a member of the Editorial Boards for "American Journal of Clinical and Experimental Medicine," "Signal Transduction Insights," and "Recent Patents on CNS Drug Discovery." Wang has authored over 12 indexed publications, including the highly cited work on β-alanine transporter BalaT in Drosophila visual neurotransmission (2017).
