Biography

Yingfang Liu obtained his PhD on Plant Science in Peking University, 1999. After that, he had his postdoctoral studies on structural biology in National Jewish Medical and Research Center, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and Duke University Medical Center. In 2005, he built up his own lab in Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. From then on, he has been working on some negative stranded RNA viruses and the host innate immune responses upon virus infection. Especially, they are trying to study viral proteins involved in viral genome replication and the host proteins that are induced by interferon upon viral infection. In recent years, his group made great achievement in studies of influenza polymerase.
