Yue Wang, MD, PhD

I completed my medical degree at the Capital Medical University in Beijing, China and my Ph.D in neuroanatomy at University of Mississippi Medical Center. I completed a neurology residency at the University of Florida, and a clinical fellowship in neurophysiology also at UF. I joined the faculty at UF in Aug 2015. I am board-certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) and also possess the ABPN advanced certification in clinical neurophysiology and epilepsy.

Before my neurology residency, I had extensive research experience in epilepsy. I worked as a postdoctoral associate at Yale University and was involved in research projects focusing on the mechanism of epileptogenesis and animal epilepsy model. A series of peer-reviewed publications resulted from my research in this field.

Dr. Wang cares for patient with epilepsy and related disorders. Her primary clinical interests involve the medical and surgical management of refractory epilepsy. Dr. Wang believes that the ultimate goal of epileptologists is to improve patient’s quality of life and restore his or her self-confidence. Her other clinical interest also includes clinical neurophysiology with a focus on critical care long term cvEEG monitoring.

Dr. Wang is involved in precisional ketogenic diet treatment for refractory epilepsy in adults. She also has a particular interest in the surgical management of refractory epilepsy and advanced method for seizure onset detection.
