Ying-Rong Liu

Staff research assistant

I am a staff research assistant in the Avagyan lab. My research project aims to reprogram patient cells into iPSCs with germline GATA2 mutations, then induce ASXL1 mutations to explore how the combination of GATA2 and ASXL1 mutations affect hematopoietic stem cells and lead to clonal hematopoiesis. My hobbies include reading, running, baking bread, listening to music, and zumba.
