I'm Dequan Wang

I am Dequan Wang (王德泉), an associate professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and a full-time mentor at Shanghai Innovation Institute.

I build agentic harnesses for scientific swarms: systems that do not merely contain what we have discovered, but learn how to discover, test, compress, and carry forward their own experience.

First in code, then in science, I study how persistent interaction, grounded feedback, shared budgets, and verification loops turn capable models into disciplined discovery systems.

I completed my Ph.D. at University of California, Berkeley, advised by Prof. Trevor Darrell, and earned my B.S. from Fudan University.
