About Me

Jerry

Hi, I’m Jerry Wang!

I'm a postdoctoral researcher in Chemical Engineering at MIT, and starting as an Assistant Professor in Civil and Environmental Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University in Fall 2019. I completed my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and Computation at MIT, where I was a U.S. Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellow (CSGF).

My research interests are in computational nanoscale mechanics, especially nanoscale fluid and solid mechanics, interfacial phenomena, transport phenomena in dense fluids, and efficient molecular simulation. I have also conducted research in nanophotonics and metamaterials (Argonne National Lab), high-energy physics (Yale/CERN), fluid mechanics at non-infinitesimal Reynolds numbers (Yale), and cell biology (University of Illinois).

I received my S.M. in Mechanical Engineering from MIT in 2015 and completed my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and in Mathematics & Physics at Yale in 2013. I was born and raised in Chicago, where I attended Northside College Prep. I am a lifelong Cubs fan (past 26 years), with a special fondness for the past 4 years.
