About the Lab
The Li lab is interested in understanding the pathological mechanisms underlying the development of leukemia and lymphoma and uses advanced in vitro and in vivo techniques to interrogate the functional roles of protein-coding and non-coding genes in these diseases. The lab is also interested in identifying novel genetic and epigenetic biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic response prediction in leukemia, lymphoma, and solid tumors. Dr. Li's research has been published in high-impact journals, including Cancer Cell, Journal of Clinical Oncology, Nature Communications, Blood, Leukemia, Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, Genome Research, and Cancer Research.7,313
