Principal Investigator
Hongqiang WANG
Dr. Hongqiang Wang joined the Department of Mechanical and Energy Engineering at Southern University of Science and Technology as an Assistant Professor in September 2018. He received his Doctor degree from the University of Tokyo, Japan, in 2015. After graduation, he became a Research Fellow supervised by Prof. Hongliang Ren in the Department of Biomedical Engineering and SINAPSE, National University of Singapore, Singapore, working on flexible manipulators. From 2015 to 2018, he worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and Wyss Institute, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA. The main results include: 1) the world's thinnest flexible climbing robot; 2) millimeter-scale ultra-thin, long-stroke electrostatic motor; 3) bee flying robot that can freely cross the water-air interface (reported by BBC, Forbes Radio, Science News, and many other media).
