About Yuxiang Wang

Hi, I\'m Shawn Wang, a builder at heart who loves the intersection of machine learning and physics. With a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and over 14 years of experience in ML and FEA, I\'ve had the privilege of turning complex ideas into impactful products. I founded and grew the Simulation & Modeling organization at Align Technology. My work focuses on creating ML- and physics-driven models to optimize everything from treatment planning to orthodontic device design and manufacturing, bringing cutting-edge research into real-world applications.My passion lies in building teams and solutions that drive innovation. From developing state-of-the-art neural network architectures to leading the creation of customized orthodontic devices, I\'m deeply motivated by solving tough problems that matter. Along the way, I\'ve published over 30 patents and contributed to projects that have made a real, meaningful impact on patient care.I\'m also an active contributor to the ML community, leading meetups with over 800 members, hosting a YouTube channel called \"Shawn\'s ML Notes,\" and presenting on advanced AI topics. I thrive on collaboration, learning, and building solutions that push the boundaries of what\'s possible.Let\'s connect if you\'re interested in the world where machine learning meets physics and product innovation.
