Dr. Tiemin Liu obtained his Ph.D. degree from the University of Toronto in 2009. From 2009 to 2014, Dr. Liu was a post-doctoral fellow at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and Harvard Medical School, then at the UT Southwestern Medical Center and was promoted to be instructor in 2014. In 2017, Dr. Liu joined School of Life Sciences, Fudan University as a full professor and has served on the Head of Department of Physiology and Neurobiology since 2019. He was also an adjunct professor in Zhongshan Hospital in Fudan University. His research focuses on the anti-obesity neurocircuitry in the brain using conditional, neuron-specific genetic engineering techniques (Cre/loxP recombination) to regulate gene expression in the mouse brain. He currently extends his research interests to the brain regulation of peripheral tissues including adipose, muscle, liver, etc. He already published more than 70 papers including Cell, Cell Metabolism, Neuron, Nature Neuroscience, Cell Reports, Diabetes, Molecular Metabolism. He has served on Secretary-General of the Chinese Society for Metabolic Biology in the Biophysical Society of China and Vice Secretary-General of the Biophysical Society of China.
