Yuling Wang is a professor of chemistry and an Australian Research Council (ARC) Future Fellow at Macquarie University. She is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC).

Yuling completed her PhD at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2009. She was then awarded an Alexander von Humboldt (AvH) fellowship in 2010 and a German Research Foundation (DFG) Grant in 2012. In 2014, she received the ARC Discovery Early Career Researcher Award (DECRA). Since 2017, she has established her group with 6 research fellows and 12 PhD students. Her research focuses on platform technology that uses functional nanomaterials and optical tools for biomarkers sensing, aiming to enhance in vitro diagnostics and personalized medicine.

Recently Yuling was awarded the NHMRC Investigator Grant (Leadership Level 1) to develop novel nanotechnology to translate small extracellular vesicles as cancer biomarker for personalized triple negative breast cancer management.
