Bio/Research
Yanzhong Huang is a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations, where he examines issues of emerging powers, global health rule making, health-related development assistance, and universal health coverage. He is also an associate professor and director for global health studies at the John C. Whitehead School of Diplomacy and International Relations at Seton Hall University, where he developed the first academic concentration among U.S. professional schools of international affairs that explicitly addresses the security and foreign policy aspects of health issues. He is the founding editor of Global Health Governance: The Scholarly Journal for the New Health Security Paradigm.
Huang has written extensively on global health governance, heath diplomacy and health security, and public health in China and East Asia. He has published numerous reports, journal articles, and book chapters, including articles in Survival, Foreign Affairs, Bioterrorism and Biosecurity, and Journal of Contemporary China, as well as op-ed pieces in New York Times, International Herald Tribune, The Diplomat, and South China Morning Post, among others. In 2006, he coauthored the first scholarly article that systematically examines China's soft power. His new book Governing Health in Contemporary China looks at the health care reform, government ability to address disease outbreaks, and food and drug safety in China.
He is often consulted by major media outlets, the private sector, and governmental and non-governmental organizations on global health issues and China. He has also been frequently invited to speak at leading academic institutions and think tanks. In 2012, he was listed by InsideJersey as one of the "20 Brainiest People in New Jersey."
