Prof. Wang Hongning

Hongning Wang is a member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and Chief Scientist for Biology under the Double First-Class Initiative at Sichuan University, where she is a professor and doctoral supervisor. She serves on the Eighth Discipline Appraisal Group for Biology and Bioengineering of the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council. Her research focuses on frontier interdisciplinary basic and applied research into disease prevention and control in pigs and chickens. She pioneered an integrated framework for the biosecurity-based prevention and control of bacterial diseases in livestock and poultry, combining whole-chain coverage, traceability, and predictive capability. Her research findings have been applied in China’s major pig- and chicken-producing regions, establishing a new paradigm for bacterial disease prevention and control through biosecurity.
