Yi Hong, an assistant professor in the Bioengineering Department at The University of Texas at Arlington, has been named a Fellow of the American Heart Association, one of the most prestigious professional organizations for outstanding contributions in science, medicine, volunteerism and leadership in heart health.
Dr. Yi Hong is an Assistant Professor in the Bioengineering Department at the University of Texas at Arlington. He achieved his PhD in Material Science and Engineering in 2005 at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China. And then Dr. Hong joined Dr. William R. Wagner’s lab as a postdoc and later as a Research Assistant Professor in the McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine in the University of Pittsburgh from 2006 to 2012. After joined the UTA in 2012, Dr. Hong has built up a Functional Applied Biomaterial (FAB) lab and works on developing functional and bioactive biodegradable soft materials and translational research for tissue repair and regeneration, drug delivery and bio-imaging applications. His major focus is located on biomaterial approaches to cardiovascular disease (scuh as heart infarction, and vascular diseases) treatment through tissue regeneration strategies. To date, he has published 64 peer-review papers in top journals in the field of biomaterials, such as Adv Mater, Biomaterials, Biomacromolecules and Acta Biomater, and 10 patents as well as over 100 conference abstracts. He received NSF CAREER award in 2016, and was elected as a Fellow of AHA in 2017. Dr. Hong is a reviewer for over 50 journals, and a member of AHA, AAAS, SFB, and BMES.His research has been supported by AHA, ONR, CPRIT, NIH and NSF.  
 
<br>
Hong was cited by the AHA’s Council on Basic Cardiovascular Sciences for developing biomaterials for cardiovascular disease treatment. He will be formally inducted at the organization’s meeting July 10-13 in Portland, Oregon.
<br>PROFESSIONAL PREPARATION
 
<br>2005Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering ,  Zhejiang University
Hong won a five-year $500,000 National Science Foundation Early Career Development, or CAREER, Program grant in February 2016 to create conductive, single-component and biodegradable elastomers. Hong’s technology is a significant advancement over conventional conductive polymers that are very stiff, hard to be processed and non-degradable.
<br>2002MS in Materials Science ,  Hebei University of Technology
 
<br>1996Associate in Polymer Chemical Engineering ,  East China University of Science and Technology
He earned his doctoral degree at Zhejiang University in 2005 and was a post-doctoral associate and research assistant professor at the University of Pittsburgh’s McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine, where he received PITT Innovator Awards in 2009 and 2010. He joined the UTA Department of Bioengineering in 2012.
