About Me

Dr. Tianliang Sun has had long-lasting interest in understanding the cell-cell communication during physical or pathological conditions. His current research is centered around the mechanisms of liver regeneration and diseases. Combining state-of-art single cell profiling, spatial transcriptomics, lineage tracing and organoid CRISPR screening, he investigates the plasticity and heterogeneity in multicellular dynamics during liver homeostasis, regeneration and diseases progression.
