He has also designed nanoelectronic networks into flexible, three-dimensional (3D) and macroporous architectures, which mimic the structure of tissue scaffolds for in vitro 3D integrations with synthetic tissues and in vivo implantation by means of syringe injection.
Jia Liu received his Ph.D. degree in Chemistry from Harvard University in 2014. His Ph.D. research with Prof. Charles M. Lieber included the fundamental studies of high performance silicon nanowire field-effect transistors and their applications in three-dimensional soft nanoelectronics, regenerative medicine, neuroscience and neuroengineering. He is now working as postdoctoral fellow with Profs. Zhenan Bao, Karl Deisseroth and Anson Lee at Stanford University to develop soft electronic systems for wearable technology, patient-specific cardiac diagnosis and genetically-targeted brain-machine interface.
