 Prof. Yang received his Ph.D. in Astrophysics from USTC in 1999. He was an exchange scholar in Max-Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Garching from 2001 to 2002. After spending a brief period of time in USTC as a lecture, and in Department of Astronomy of University of Massachusetts as a postdoc, he joined the faculty of Shanghai Astronomical Observatory in 2005.


Research Interests:
Theoretical and observational cosmology, including galaxy formation and evolution, galaxy groups, halo occupation model, cosmological weak lensing, large scale structure of the Universe, N-body and gas simulations.
