Bywgraffiad
Ar hyn o bryd mae Dr Xin Yang yn dal y rolau canlynol yn yr ysgol:
- Cyfarwyddwr Labordy Uwchsain a Synwyryddion Meddygol (MUSL)
- Pennaeth Peirianneg Ryngwladol, Adran Peirianneg Drydanol ac Electronig
- Cydlynydd CU-HZAU iCDT ar Peirianneg Biofeddygol a Bioynni
- Tiwtor Derbyn Ymchwil Ôl-raddedig EEE
- Pennaeth Thema Ymchwil Byw'n Iach a Heneiddio
Mae Dr Yang hefyd yn athro atodol ym Mhrifysgol Lanzhou Jiaotong, Tsieina, ac yn aelod o'r Coleg Adolygu Cyfoedion, EPSRC.
Graddiodd o Brifysgol Jiaotong Beijing, Tsieina yn 2005 gyda BEng o Beirianneg Biofeddygol, ac yna MSc mewn Electroneg Feddygol a Ffiseg o Queen Mary, Prifysgol Llundain. Dyfarnwyd PhD mewn Peirianneg Feddygol i Dr Yang o Brifysgol Caerdydd yn 2011, ar ymchwil uwchsain Doppler mewn meintioli neofasgwlaidd. Ef oedd Prif Swyddog Gweithredol Beijing BJ Device Instrumentation Ltd rhwng 2007 a 2009. Dr Yang oedd Cymrawd Ymchwil Sefydliad Prydeinig y Galon (BHF) yn Sefydliad Ymchwil Feddygol y Frenhines, Prifysgol Caeredin, yn gweithio ar ddatblygu technegau uwchsain Doppler ar gyfer cymwysiadau cyn a chlinigol rhwng 2011 a 2012.
Dechreuodd Dr Yang ei swydd bresennol ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd ers 2013 a dyfarnwyd iddo ei Grant Cyntaf EPSRC yn 2016 ar bwnc labordy ar sglodyn ar gyfer nodweddu a didoli celloedd canser. Mae wedi derbyn nifer o grantiau ymchwil a ariennir gan yr EPSRC, y Gymdeithas Frenhinol, GCRF, Ymddiriedolaeth Wellcome a diwydiannau, gan gwmpasu meysydd ymchwil diagnosteg canser pwynt gofal, uwchsain meddygol, acwstohylifeg, microamgylchedd tiwmor, a microhylifeg. Ei ffocws ymchwil presennol yw datblygu technegau acwstofluidic i wneud diagnosis / trin canserau a chlefydau eraill. Mae wedi cyhoeddi degau o bapurau cyfnodolion wedi'u dyfarnu ar y pynciau uchod, ac wedi cyhoeddi wyth llyfr fel y prif awdur ym maes electroneg a microreolwyr.
