Profile

Dr Liu is a professor of oncology and molecular medicine in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. His group mainly focused on the researches in targeted therapy of malignant tumors, which have been supported by grants from the National High Technology Research and Development Program of China (1 project), the National Natural Science Foundation of China (4 projects), and other government foundations. He has published 70 research papers in the SCI jounals. The research achievements in his group on cancer gene therapy received the first prize in Natural Science Award of Ministry of Education and the first prize in Science & Technology Progress Award of Guangdong Province. An anti-angiogenic gene medicine developed in his group has almost finished its phase III clinical trial.

Interests
Dr. Liu’s group is interested in the researches of targeted therapy of malignant tumors (colorectal, nasopharyngeal and urogenital cancers), and the research fields include: 1) the molecular mechanisms on drug resistance/sensitivity; 2) the molecular mechanisms of initiation, progression and metastasis of colorectal and genitourinary cancer; and 3) developing targeted therapeutics based on aforementioned research achievements.
