Dr. Shen Wang | Probability Theory | Best Researcher Award

Assistant professor at College of Science/Civil Aviation University of China, China

Dr. Shen Wang, an Assistant Professor at the Civil Aviation University of China, specializes in stochastic analysis, particularly in McKean-Vlasov Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs) and invariant probability measures. He holds a Ph.D. from Tianjin University and has contributed to mathematical modeling through five SCI/Scopus-indexed journal publications and two patents. His research applies Wang’s Harnack inequality and the Banach fixed point theorem to establish weak well-posedness for SDEs with integrable drift. Dr. Wang has editorial appointments (2) and research collaborations (4), demonstrating academic engagement. However, with only one citation index, limited industry projects, and no professional memberships, his research impact remains in its early stages. Expanding his citation count, industry collaborations, and leadership roles in awards or professional organizations would further strengthen his profile. While he exhibits strong theoretical expertise, greater influence in applied research and broader academic recognition would enhance his suitability for prestigious awards like the Best Researcher Award in the future.
