Dr. Feige Wang

Biography

Feige Wang is an observational astronomer with broad research interests in observational cosmology and extragalactic astronomy. He leads efforts to study the environments of dark matter halos, the earliest supermassive black holes, and galaxies. His research aims to find and characterize protoclusters and large-scale structures in the early Universe, conduct deep galaxy redshift surveys using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), and perform multi-wavelength follow-up observations. Additionally, he maps the history and morphology of Cosmic Reionization and develops new techniques for mining big data from missions like Euclid, Rubin, and Roman. Notably, Feige is among the primary users of JWST, overseeing significant JWST legacy programs. He is actively involved in large collaborations, including limited JWST ASPIRE Collaboration and the LSST AGN Science Collaboration. Feige joined the University of Michigan and is looking for new students and postdoctoral researchers.
