Yu HUANG is Jeanie Hu Professor of Biomedical Sciences and Chair Professor of Biomedical Sciences and Vascular Biology at City University of Hong Kong, where he leads the Department of Biomedical Sciences. He received a BSc degree from Fudan University Shanghai Medical College and a PhD from the University of Cambridge. Prior to joining CityU in 2021, he was a A3 Professor of Biomedical Sciences at Chinese University of Hong Kong and the founding Director (Basic Sciences) of the Heart and Vascular Institute.

The aim of Huang’s team is to investigate the cellular and molecular processes that cause endothelial cell dysfunction in high blood pressure, obesity and diabetes. They also aim to find new biomarkers for vascular disease and to discover ways to reverse vascular dysfunction in animal models of cardio-metabolic disorders. He has co-authored 507 publications in SCI-indexed journals including Nature, Science, Cell Metabolism, Circulation Research, European Heart Journal, PNAS, Diabetes, Hypertension, ATVB, Stroke, Kidney International, etc. His work has earned him over 33,950 citations on Google Scholar (an h-index of 96). He is one of the Stanford’s list of world’s top 2% most highly cited scientists, both career-long and single year for 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 (318/94,611 top 0.3% in Pharmacology & Pharmacy for 2020; 273/131,949 top 0.2% in Pharmacology & Pharmacy for 2021; 318/134,745 top 0.2% in Pharmacology & Pharmacy for 2022; 1,505/210,400 top 0.7% in Cardiovascular System & Hematology for 2023).
