Research & Clinical Interests
Dr. Wang’s research focuses on the investigation of role of parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH related protein (PTHrP)–activated PTH receptor in musculoskeletal diseases. The ultimate goal of my research is to advance knowledge in the fields of GPCR biological and musculoskeletal disease research and translate the scientific discoveries for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis and other musculoskeletal diseases.
