Summary
Lifan Liang is a postdoctoral scholar and computational biologist with eight years of experience developing novel models to dissect molecular mechanisms of cancer using multi-omics data. Based at the University of Chicago after doctoral training in Biomedical Informatics at the University of Pittsburgh, he integrates protein-protein interaction, SNV, copy-number, ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq and RNA-seq data to reveal functional insights across epigenomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics. His work combines rigorous method development with hands-on high-throughput data analysis, and his GitHub showcases reproducible pipelines and tools for large-scale omics integration. Comfortable bridging code and biology, he focuses on interpretable models that translate complex datasets into testable hypotheses for cancer research.
