Biography

Mang is a professor at Sun Yat-sen University. Prior to joining Sun Yat-sen University, he is a senior research associate at the University of Sydney. He is also an adjunct faculty at Shanghai Public Health Clinical Centre and before that he is an ORISE fellow and Guest researcher at the US CDC. Mang received his undergraduate and Mphil degree from the University of Hong Kong and his Ph.D. from the University of Sydney.

Mang’s research is mainly focused on evolutionary history and ecological dynamics of RNA viruses. His work uses genomics, metagenomics, and meta-transcriptomics tools for virus discovery and characterization, based on which he has re-defined the diversity and evolutionary history of the RNA virosphere. Currently he is interested in using the same approaches to reveal the interaction between virome, microbiome, and hosts within an infected individual.
