About me

Hi, there! My name is Lihe Liu, and I am a postdoctoral computational biologist from Dr. Sanju Sinha group at the Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute. Earlier, I obtained my Ph.D. in Animal Sciences from UW-Madison, working with Dr. Francisco Peñagaricano. I transitioned from my previous focus in Animal Genomics to Computational Oncology. When I am not in front of a laptop, you will spot me fishing on a pier or a boat near SD :)
