Biography

Yu Wang serves as Chair of the International Center for Relativistic Astrophysics (ICRA), he is a professor at the International Center for Relativistic Astrophysics Network (ICRANet) and also holds a research position at the National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF). He oversees administrative activities including international collaborations, doctoral programs, conferences, and awards. He leads the data analysis team focusing on high-energy X-ray and gamma-ray observations from missions such as Swift, NuSTAR, and Fermi, as well as optical data analysis.

His theoretical research centers on high-energy astrophysics and cosmology. Based on experience in data analysis, theoretical modeling, and computer programming, his current research focuses on artificial intelligence in astrophysics, including neural networks and large language models applied to active galactic nuclei, cosmology, gamma-ray bursts, gravitational waves and etc. Unlike traditional approaches based on proposing theories or summarizing observations, artificial intelligence integrates large volumes of multi-wavelength data to identify underlying physical principles.
