Biography

Huiping Liu, MD, PhD, is an Associate Professor of Medicine in the Department of Pharmacology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. Dr. Liu's research focuses on the molecular cellular mechanisms that underlie circulating tumor stem cell (CTSC) clusters' roles in immune evasion, therapy resistance, and distant metastasis. His laboratory employs cutting-edge technologies such as single-cell multi-omic profiling and CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing to unravel complex tumor-immune interactions and to develop machine learning approaches for biomarker-guided therapeutic screening and optimization. Dr. Liu actively partners with multidisciplinary pioneers in translational biomedical research, clinical trials, and therapeutic commercialization. His influential projects have resulted in several key discoveries in the area of cancer biology and treatment, particularly concerning the mechanisms driving tumor progression in breast cancer.
