Yan-Bing Wei is currently an associateProfessor at Central China Normal University (CCNU).His research interested has been on the heavy-flavor phenomenology, quantum chromodynamics (QCD) factorization, effective theories and so on.He has published about 20 academic papers, and his work has been cited more than 600 times.He has computed many important quantum and power corrections to heavy-flavor processes within the light-cone sum rule framework, and as a result, was invited to write a frontier review article forAdv. High Energy Phys.His work on the radiative decay of B mesons has been highly recognized and cited by the Belle collaboration for extracting non-perturbative parameters of the B meson. He, along with collaborators, performed the first quantum correction calculation for the anomalous R(D) and led the international community in studying the power corrections to the R(D) anomaly.
