member: Wengang Yao
Graduate student (1998.9 ~2003.7)
Wengang has explored the direct asymmetric aldol type reaction of ethyl diazoacetate with aldehydes. He also studied the S-H, O-H and C-H insertions with metal carbenes. Wengang has set up his own company immediately after obtaining the Ph.D degree.
