My name is Wei-Bung (Bob) Wang ( in Chinese). I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, at University of California, Riverside. I'm in the Algorithms and Computational Biology Lab, advised by Tao Jiang.

My current research area is haplotype inference. Former interests include design and analysis of algorithms, computational geometry, graph theory, and tag SNP selection.

My Email address is , please feel free to contact me.
Résumé
I'm interested in most mind sports, especially bridge. I'm an expert bridge player. I've participated in World Youth Team Championship 2005 in Sydney, Australia. The left-top photo was taken at that time.
