David Yang's work centers on human body communication and wireless sensing, including secure, ultra-low-power devices that let signals travel through or near the human body for authentication and medical monitoring. His publication record also includes work on data-driven control systems for greenhouse energy management and other applied engineering topics such as radiation therapy planning automation and memory chip design, suggesting a broad, project-driven engineering portfolio rather than a single narrow specialty.
