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 Associate Professor in the Bioengineering Department at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA). He achieved his PhD in Material Science and Engineering in 2005 at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China. And then Dr. Hong worked as a postdoc and later as a Research Assistant Professor in the McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine in the University of Pittsburgh (PITT) from 2006 to 2012. After joined in UTA in 2012, his research focuses on developing functional and bioactive biodegradable soft materials and translational research for tissue repair and regeneration, drug delivery and bio-imaging applications with emphasis on cardiovascular disease treatment. He has published over 80 peer-review papers in the field of biomaterials, and 12 patents as well as over 120 conference abstracts. He received many awards, including NSF CAREER award (2016), COE Outstanding Early Career Faculty Award (2018), BMES ABioM Junior Investigator Award (2018), Excellence in Research (2020), and CAB Mid-Career Award (2020). He was elected as a Fellow of American Heart Association in 2017. His research has been funded from AHA, NSF, NIH, ONR and CPRIT.


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.


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.
EDUCATION


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.
