Yifang Wang is an experimental particle physicist, currently a Researcher at the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of Chinese academy of Sciences. He obtained his Ph. D. at the University of Florence in Italy, and subsequently worked at MIT and Stanford University. Since his postgraduate study, he worked at the L3 and AMS experiment at CERN, Palo Verde experiment at the US and KamLAND experiment in Japan. In 2001, he jointed the Institute of High Energy Physics in Beijing, where he led the design, construction and science effort of the BESIII experiment at the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider for tau-charm physics. Later, he initiated and led the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment which observed a new type of neutrino oscillation denoted by theta_13. He proposed and led the construction of the JUNO neutrino experiment, which will be in operation this year(2025). Since 2012, he proposed the Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC) as a Higgs Factory for the future of the particle physics in the world. The design and R&D has basically completed and may start the construction in a few years.
