Qi Wang

Dr. Qi Wang is an Assistant Professor of Biochemistry in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, specializing in Membrane Biophysics with expertise in atomistic molecular dynamics and biochemistry. Her research explores the intricate biophysical mechanisms governing membrane structure and function, focusing on how oxygen transport is regulated and its broader implications for health and disease. Dr. Wang has been actively involved with the International Society on Oxygen Transport to Tissue (ISOTT) since 2019. In 2024, she served as a core organizing team member and played a pivotal role in establishing the society’s first Young Researcher Symposium, aimed at fostering early-career scientific engagement. Her exceptional contributions to the field earned her the prestigious Britton Chance Award (2024) from ISOTT. Additionally, she has received multiple teaching and travel awards, including the Graduate Teaching Award (2023) at New Mexico Tech, underscoring her dedication to both research and education.
Her scholarly achievements include publications, such as Mechanism of oxygen “buffering” by caveolae (2022) and Simulation Study of Breast Cancer Lipid Changes Affecting Membrane Oxygen Permeability (2020). Dr. Wang has also delivered numerous presentations on topics such as lipid dynamics and membrane oxygen permeability at esteemed conferences like ISOTT and the Biophysical Society Annual Meeting. Dr. Wang’s work bridges fundamental biochemistry with applied membrane biophysics, providing critical insights into how membrane composition affects oxygen transport and the tumor microenvironment. Her contributions continue to advance the understanding of membrane functionality in biological systems.
