Dr Changling Wang

Postdoctoral Research Fellow

I was born and raised in Fuyang, Anhui Province, China, and obtained my PhD degree from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) under the supervision of Prof. Yifeng Wang. During my doctoral studies, my research focused on N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) boryl radical catalysis, particularly the development of asymmetric radical cyclization and isomerization reactions mediated by NHC–boryl radicals for the construction of nitrogen- and oxygen-containing heterocycles. After completing my PhD, I continued in Prof. Yifeng Wang’s group at USTC for one year as a postdoctoral researcher, further exploring radical-based catalytic strategies in organic synthesis. In December 2025, I joined the Dixon group as a postdoctoral research fellow, where my current research focuses on the development of novel methodologies in organic synthesis.
