Hi, I am Hanqing Liu (刘翰青).
I am currently a Harvard Junior Fellow working with the Greenberg lab at Harvard Medical School.
Before joining Harvard, I was a postdoctoral fellow in the Ecker lab at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, where I got my PhD in Biology from UCSD under the guidance of Dr. Joseph Ecker. My doctoral research focuses on developing single-cell multi-omic technologies and analytical frameworks to investigate and decipher the epigenomic diversity of mammalian brains across spatial and temporal dimensions.
I got my BSc in Biotechnology from the Zhejiang University in China, graduating with honors from the Chu Kochen Honors College. I also had one year clinical training at the Zhejiang University School of Medicine, before I decided to change my career path to basic research.
I grow up in Hangzhou, the capital city of Zhejiang Province in China. I enjoy taking photos and going to classical music concerts in my spare time.
