Prof. Chin-Lung Wang Speaks of Math As the Purest Language
In his modest office, Prof. Chin-Lung Wang of NTU’s Department of Mathematics listens intently to a student’s presentation. Occasionally, he pauses to offer his reflections while gesturing at a dense mosaic of formulas on the whiteboard. This weekly meeting with his research team is a fixture in his schedule. Despite his recent induction as an Academician of Academia Sinica in July, Prof. Wang’s routine remains unchanged. “To bequeath a formula that will be used for hundreds of years—is there any greater joy?” He takes his new title with a calm indifference, viewing it as far less significant than making tangible contributions to theoretical science.
