王烁博士于2011年和2015年分别获得生物化学与分子生物学硕士学位和古生物学博士学位，之后于University of Southern California完成演化发育生物学交叉学科的博士后训练。2022年，王烁博士加入华东师范大学生命科学学院，担任研究员/博士生导师。

王烁博士在生命科学和地球科学两个学科受过多年系统训练，在表型发育与演化方面有多年研究积累。围绕鸟喙的起源及羽毛演化等演化生物学领域亟待解决的科学问题，结合发育生物学前沿技术，提出了有影响力的新学说并提供了关键的证据。相关研究成果发表在PNAS、Current Biology、Cladistics等著名国际期刊。课题组以四足动物为研究对象，以“古今结合”的方式利用发育生物学的研究思路和前沿技术与化石证据有机结合探索重要表型特征的发育机制和演化过程。实验室热忱欢迎有志于从事演化生物学研究的同学和博士后加盟(硕博考生请务必提前联系确定名额)，欢迎有意向报考本实验室的同学提前联系实习机会。

       Dr. Shuo Wang is an evolutionary biologist that currently works on the interface of paleontology and neontology, his interests are across vertebrate anatomy, paleontology, and evolutionary developmental biology of sevral vestigial organs. Dr. Shuo Wang got his master's degree in molecular biology from Nankai University and a Ph.D. degree in vertebrate paleontology from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology (IVPP), Chinese Academy of Sciences. With the support of the Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP fellowship, among the top 12 awardees worldwide), he then became an HFSP post-doctor at the Keck School of Medicine, The University of Southern California where he has been extensively trained in the interdisciplinary field of evolutionary developmental biology. He joined the East China Normal University in 2022 as a professor (full) and led the Laboratory of Evolution and Developmental Biology since then.

       As the curriculum vitae and other information indicate, Dr. Shuo Wang has been extensively trained in paleontology and biology and has accumulated certain experience in the areas of both vertebrate paleontology and evolutionary developmental biology. His study interests across traditional paleontology, vertebrate comparative anatomy, embryology, systematics, and developmental biology. He is super interested in exploring the developmental processes and evolutionary history of several vestigial organs, for example, the ontogenetic reduction of teeth (Wang et al., 2017 PNAS) and manual digit reduction patterns. To date, Dr. Shuo Wang has published more than 30 peer-reviewed papers in several world-class journals including Nature, Science, Cell, PNAS, and Current Biology. They are well-cited, and many have been highlighted in the New York Times, AAAS, and CNN, among others. By taking advantage of the combined approaches of neontology and paleontology, Dr. Shuo Wang aims to understand three challenging questions: (1) phenotypic evolution driven by ontogenetic remodeling; (2) evo-devo bases of trait loss; and (3) variable expressivity and developmental plasticity. 

      We are constantly recruiting talented graduate students and post-doctoral fellows to join our lab. We offer highly collaborative working environment, competitive compensation and highly innovative research projects. Student and postdoc candidates who are interested in paleontology and evo-devo (including eco-evo-devo and paleo-evo-devo) are welcome to contact Dr. Shuo Wang for potential projects and positions in the lab.
