Wang Huiyuan, male, born in 1979 in Anhui Province, is currently a professor at the Department of Astronomy, University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). He graduated from the Department of Astronomy and Applied Physics of USTC in 2001 and received a Ph.D. in Astrophysics from USTC in 2006. He was appointed as an associate professor in 2009 and promoted to professor in 2016. He spent one year as a visiting scholar at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Germany in 2005. Additionally, he conducted research at the University of Massachusetts (Umass) for three years, 2007, 2012 and 2013. His research interests are broad, encompassing the formation and evolution of structures on various scales in the universe based on cosmological numerical simulations and observational data, including the large-scale structure of the universe, dark matter halos, galaxies, and quasars, as well as their co-evolution. He has independently developed a series of methods to reconstruct the material density, velocity, and baryonic gas distribution in the large-scale structures of the real universe and their evolutionary history. These studies have gained significant international influence and are widely used by international peers in research on cosmology, large-scale structures, baryonic matter, and galaxies.
