Ru Wang

Ru completed her PhD in Ph.D. in Mechanical Science and Engineering at UIUC, working on novel ways to study biological structure and dynamics at the nanometer level over time scales of milliseconds to days. During her time in the Boyden lab, she worked on new strategies for performing expansion microscopy.
