Emily C. Liang, MD
Assistant Professor-Univ Med Line, Medicine - Blood & Marrow Transplantation
BioDr. Liang is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Blood and Marrow Transplantation & Cellular Therapy. She cares for patients with multiple myeloma and other plasma cell disorders receiving cellular therapies. She graduated from Stanford University with a BA in Human Biology and earned her MD from the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. She completed internal medicine residency at Stanford University and hematology/oncology fellowship at the University of Washington and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center.
Dr. Liang's research integrates clinical investigation, statistical modeling, and translational science to characterize, predict, and mitigate CAR T-cell therapy-associated toxicities and advance cellular therapies for multiple myeloma. Her work has been published in Blood, Blood Advances, Transplantation and Cellular Therapy, and Bone Marrow Transplantation and has been funded by the National Institutes of Health, Conquer Cancer, and Swim Across America. -

Ronglih Liao
Douglass M. and Nola Leishman Professor of Cardiovascular Disease
BioDr. Liao is a Professor of Medicine and co-Director of Stanford Cardiac Amyloid Center. The major goal of her research program focuses on understanding the mechanisms that underlie the pathophysiology of heart failure and developing novel treatments to combat this process. Her laboratory has played an international leading role in the study of amyloid light chain (AL) cardiomyopathy, a rare and fatal form of cardiovascular disease. We have described the underlying pathophysiologic basis for amyloid cardiomyopathy and found that the circulating amyloidogenic light chain proteins that characterize this disease directly result in a specific cardiotoxic response. Consequently, our research work has redefined AL cardiomyopathy and has raised new treatment approaches. More recently, her research efforts have expanded to include transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloidosis.
In line with her goal of revealing novel therapeutic strategies for patients with cardiovascular disease, our efforts have also focused on characterizing and harnessing endogenous cardiac regenerative mechanisms. Her laboratory initially demonstrated the therapeutic potential of exogenous primitive muscle cells delivered to the injured heart. This work was among the earliest milestones in the field and served as the basis for an international trial of cell-based therapy. Subsequently, Liao lab identified and characterized a population of cardiac progenitor cells and its relationship and dynamic activity following cardiac injury in the adult heart. Her laboratory aims to reveal the molecular mechanisms regulating the endogenous regenerative capacity of the heart and to harness such repair mechanisms for the treatment of cardiovascular disease. Dr. Liao has lectured extensively on both amyloid cardiomyopathy and stem cell biology, and have maintained a history of independent NIH funding in these areas for more than two decades.
Over the course of her academic career, she has taken the greatest pride in mentoring the next generation of scientists. Dr. Liao has had the privilege to supervise several dozen students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty, many of whom have gone on to independent academic careers at the highest institutions. Her contribution to the advancement of scientific knowledge also includes lecturing at various university and academic institutions as well as at scores of conferences and symposia locally, nationally, and internationally. -
