Quansan Yang

Quansan was a postdoctoral researcher in both the Boyden and So labs at MIT. He received a B.Eng. degree in the Department of Engineering Mechanics, School of Aerospace, at Tsinghua University (2016), and completed his Ph.D. studies in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Northwestern University (2021) under the supervision of Prof. John A. Rogers. During his doctoral studies, he developed technologies for eco/bioresorbable electronic systems and associated sustainable manufacturing strategies. In the Synthetic Neurobiology group, Quansan developed technologies based on implosion fabrication to explore, understand, and create novel reaction environments for chemicals, materials, electronics, and photonics. He then moved on to a faculty job at U Washington.
