Research Interests
Dr. Wang’s primary research goal is to develop better diagnosis and treatment protocols to optimize the visual outcomes of every child who is affected by eye diseases. Her pediatric vision research lab conducts both hypothesis-driven basic and translational studies of amblyopia, strabismus, and retinopathy of prematurity. Her research projects focus on the normal and abnormal development of the retina, refractive errors, and visual function in children, especially those who have congenital and early onset eye disorders. Dr. Wang is a member of multi-center clinical research groups: the PEDIG group and the G-ROP study group.
Dr. Wang has been very active in the academic community and frequently serves as a reviewer for more than 30 journals. She is a regular member of ARVO and AAPOS.
