Dr. DaZhi Wang's Lab Research

Dr. Wang's laboratory focuses on the molecular mechanisms of cardiac, smooth and skeletal muscle development and diseases. They revealed that myocardin is essential for cardiovascular development. Over the past decade, the Wang lab studies non-coding RNAs, in particular microRNAs (miRNAs) and they...
