Liman Liu

Liman Liu is an Associate Research Scientist at the Yale School of Medicine, affiliated with the Department of Internal Medicine at Yale University. Their research focuses on auditory system physiology, neurodegenerative diseases, and inner ear biology. Key projects include investigating hearing sensitivity mechanisms, Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers, and the impact of genetic mutations on cochlear function.

Research interests span hearing protection mechanisms, genetic influences on auditory disorders, and the intersection of neuroscience with otolaryngology. Notable contributions include studies on Cx26 mutations and hyperacusis, efferent neuron roles in hearing protection, and early Alzheimer’s detection via auditory deficits.

Liu’s work integrates molecular biology, electrophysiology, and animal models to address hearing loss and neurodegenerative challenges. Collaborative efforts aim to advance therapies for ototoxicity and neurosensory disorders.
