معرفی
Jing Liu is an Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Purdue University, with affiliations at Indiana University School of Medicine's Center for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, Center for Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases, and the Indiana University Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center. His research focuses on developing advanced imaging methods and computational algorithms to study biophysical properties in live cells and nanoscale light-matter interactions. Key areas include chromatin biophysics, RNA imaging, and single-molecule spatial omics for Type 1 diabetes research.
Dr. Liu holds a Ph.D. in Biological Engineering (Purdue University, 2015), M.S. in Optics (Chinese Academy of Sciences, 2010), and B.S. in Physics (Nanjing University, 2007). He has secured significant grants from NSF, NIH, and other institutions, including the 2023 NSF CAREER Award and 2022 NIH/NIGMS Maximizing Investigator’s Research Award.
His research outputs include groundbreaking work on chromatin motion dynamics, deep learning in microscopy, and plasmonic nanostructures. Notable achievements include quantifying DNA damage effects on chromatin mobility and developing bioimage informatics tools for spatial transcriptomics.
- Grants: NSF Physics of Living Systems (2023–2028), NIH/NIDDK Spatial Transcriptomics (2022–2024), and others.
- Labs/Teams: Leads interdisciplinary teams at Purdue and collaborates with IU School of Medicine on diabetes and cancer research.
