LIU Jiang Ph.D
Education background Dr. LIU Jiang received his Ph.D. degrees from Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2003. He got his first Postdoc Training in University of Michigan from 2003 to 2005. Then he was trained as a postdoc in Yale University from 2005 to 2006.
Work experience He was appointed as research associate (assistant professor) in University of Chicago from 2006 to 2009 . He was recruited as a professor in Beijing Institute of Genomics in 2009.
Research field Our group is trying to integrate genomics method to understand some fundamental questions in epigenetic inheritance and animal development.
Award Dr. LIU Jiang was recipient of "Ten thousand plan" - National high level talents special support plan (2016)
Project He was the Principal Investigator of National Natural Science Foundation of China (31630040, 31425015, 31561130152, 91519306, 81171902, and 81402112).
Our lab used zebrafish as the model to study the DNA methylation inheritance. Strikingly, we found that Sperm DNA methylome is inherited by early embryos, while oocyte methylome is discarded (Cell , 2013).This finding indicates not only DNA sequences can be inherited, but also DNA methylome of sperm can be inherited by zebrafish embryos. we also revealed the programming and inheritance of parental DNA methylomes in mammals (Cell, 2014). We reported 3D Chromatin Structures of Mature Gametes and Structural Reprogramming during Mammalian Embryogenesis (Cell,2017). Recently, our group has revealed how the “programming language” directs gene expression pattern in human early embryos (Cell,2018).
