Xiangbing Wang, MD., Ph.D. is a Professor in the Division of Endocrinology at Rutgers, Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. He graduated from Hunan Medical University and received his Medical degree in 1983 and his MS degree in 1986. He obtained his Ph.D. in the fields of Physiology/Pharmacology from Oregon Health Science University in 1994 and finished his postgraduate training in the field of Endocrine Pharmacology at Yale University in 1996. He completed his 5-year clinical training in Internal Medicine and Endocrinology at Interfaith Medical Center, SUNY in 2001. For the last 15 years, he has run a clinical biochemical research laboratory and his clinical research has focused on vitamin D-vitamin D binding protein, primary hyperparathyroidism, parathyroid hormone, and cardiovascular risk factors. 

He is an experienced clinical endocrinologist, a principle investigator of several clinical trials and a Top Doctor of New Jersey 2017. Areas of clinical interest include thyroid disorders, primary hyperparathyroidism, and vitamin D related disorders. He is a member of the publication and clinical research committees of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists. He serves on the editorial boards of several peer-reviewed journals, including Endocrine Practice. He has published more than 100 research articles and more than 100 abstracts presented at national and international meetings.
