Biography

Haodi earned his Ph.D. in biophysics from Peking University, China. Following his doctoral studies, he pursued a postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford University's Cardiovascular Institute, working under the guidance of Dr. Joseph Wu. Currently, Haodi is appointed as an assistant professor at the Vascular Medicine Institute of the University of Pittsburgh. Haodi's research is centered around unraveling the intricate genetic and epigenetic mechanisms underlying human cardiac diseases. In collaboration with Liu lab, he will be investigating the impact of cohesin complex protein dysfunction on chromatin organization and functionality within fully differentiated cell types, particularly cardiomyocytes.  This research contributes to a broader understanding of the molecular basis of cardiovascular diseases and offers potential avenues for therapeutic interventions.
