The research laboratory led by Yunlong Liu, PhD, develops innovative computational and high-throughput genomics approaches in studying gene regulation, with the focus on splicing regulation.
Specific research areas include developing computational algorithms and high-throughput genomics experimental approaches in studying functions of genetic variants in complex diseases, designing methodologies on next-generation sequencing and single-cell analytics, and understanding regulatory mechanisms and translational impact of alternative splicing in a variety of disease systems, including cancer, diabetes, neurological diseases, and addiction.
