Professional Memberships

Dr. Yang holds professional memberships with the American Association for Cancer Research, American Society of Nanomedicine and National Cancer Institute Alliance for Nanotechnology in Cancer.

Research

Dr. Yang's research projects focus on the development of novel cancer nanotechnologies and imaging methods to address the major challenges in clinical oncology of early cancer detection, targeted drug delivery, overcoming drug resistance, assessment of therapeutic response using non-invasive imaging, and image-guided surgery.

Recently, Dr. Yang and Huabei Jiang, PhD, of the University of Florida, received a multiple PI R01 grant from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering of the NIH. The grant will fund a four-year project to develop and test a multimodal imaging system and targeted nanoprobes for image-guided treatment of breast cancer. The study is a response to chemotherapy being largely ineffective for over 60% of patients with triple negative breast cancer.
