Summary
Jianheng Liu is a postdoctoral associate at Weill Cornell Medicine working in Samie Jaffrey’s lab on RNA cap modifications, bringing nine years of expertise at the interface of molecular biology and computational analysis. Trained with a PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from Sun Yat-sen University, he previously investigated A-to-I editing and mRNA m5C using both wet-lab and in silico approaches. Jianheng has hands-on experience with single-cell and long-read technologies including Drop-seq, Microwell-seq, and Nanopore sequencing, and developed a rigorously validated mRNA bisulfite-seq pipeline that disambiguates artifacts to reveal true transcriptome m5C sites. That pipeline has also proven useful alongside single-base GLORI m6A mapping, highlighting his knack for creating tools that bridge experimental and computational gaps. Based in New York, he combines deep methodological rigor with a practical focus on resolving contentious questions in RNA modification biology.
