Getting Involved
Postdocs and visiting scholars
We are always looking for talented postdoc and scholars to join our innovative projects. If you're interested in iPSC, CRISPR screening, and cardiovascular diseases, contact Dr. Liu directly for details.
Ph.D. Students
Prospective Ph.D. students interested in joining my research group should apply directly to the Physiology PhD program or contact me before your application. The Department at MCW is committed to supporting all new Ph.D. students with five years of funding through combinations of grants, university fellowships, and teaching assistantships.
Why join our iPSC-Perturbation lab?
The rapid advancements in iPSC stem cell technology and CRISPR technology have thrust us into an era where science fiction becomes reality, offering tantalizing possibilities like eradicating genetic diseases, enhancing human capabilities, and potentially extending lifespan. "Designing babies" using pluripotent stem cells and CRISPR? The concept of "modified human" could easily slide from medically justifiable edits to "deginer baby", it is "feasible" today and become a rasing question needs regulation and oversight. But in our lab, we are using iPSC and CRISPR tools to revolutionize medicine by curing intractable diseases and possibly even addressing the age-old problem in heart attack.
