Professor and Department Head, Physiology
Research Interests:
The Liang group studies molecular systems medicine. The current work in our group focuses on three areas: (epi)genomics and precision medicine, regulatory RNA, and cellular metabolism, as they relate to hypertension and cardiovascular and kidney diseases. We have a multidisciplinary, translational research platform where we integrate human research with animal, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC), and other model system research using approaches of physiology, multi-omics, single-cell and spatial omics, big data analysis, genome editing, genetics, biochemistry, and molecular and cell biology.
