Role in the Community
- His own TAH encyclopedia entry is preserved in the corpus as 12 (published 2015-12-20, value band B); no memoir or article material mentions him.
- A second, later encyclopedia record exists: 1833. Prof. Shang-Fa Yang 楊祥發教授 (published 2017-08-13, band B), which gives his Chinese name 楊祥發 and records the 1991 Wolf Prize in Agriculture. It appears to describe the same person as Prof. Shang-Fa Yang, but the two TAH profiles disagree: this one lists 台大農業化學 M.S. + Utah State Ph.D. Plant Biochemistry, while #1833 lists 台大農業 B.S./M.S. 1956 + Utah Ph.D. Biochemistry 1962. HOLD: conflict in degree program and Utah campus (Utah State vs. Utah) between TAH #743 and TAH #1833.
- Re-verified 2026-09-26 (slice 09251031-30): fresh ZH+EN grep (‘Shang Fa Yang’ / ‘楊祥發’) returns only own entries 12, 1833. Prof. Shang-Fa Yang 楊祥發教授 + works index; no memoir or article material. HOLD stands.
