Research and Clinical Interests

Dr. Wang has worked with Dr. M. Brandwein-Gensler in "risk assessment of oral squamous cell carcinoma" for several years. They have a long-term project of a cohort study on oral squamous cell carcinomas involving multiple institutions. At NYU Langone Medical Center, Dr. Wang has been collaborating with Otolaryngology surgeons in translational research, including Head and Neck mucosa melanomas, and HPV-ISH in Head and Neck lesions.
