Sihong Liu
Research Associate, SAL Early Childhood Education
BioDr. Sihong Liu is a Social Science Research Scholar at the Stanford Center on Early Childhood, working with Dr. Philip Fisher. She earned her Ph.D. in Human Development and Family Science from the University of Georgia and completed her postdoctoral training at the Center for Translational Neuroscience at the University of Oregon.
Dr. Liu’s research integrates interdisciplinary theories and methodologies to explore how early life stress across multi-level ecological contexts shapes children’s behavior, development, and health. She also employs neuroimaging, electrocardiogram, and neuroendocrine stress response assessments to investigate how early adverse experiences become biologically embedded, altering children’s neurobiological processes.
In an era marked by large-scale socio-historical events and rapid advancements in algorithm-driven technology and media, children are exposed to unprecedented levels of unpredictability. Motivated by these challenges, Dr. Liu’s recent work focuses on understanding – and mitigating – the effects of early life unpredictability on young children’s development. Guided by a translational neuroscience framework, she seeks to bridge research, theory, and practice by accelerating the translation from basic science to innovative practical strategies. She advances this mission through a two-pronged approach: developing interpersonal interventions (e.g., programs supporting parents, early childhood educators, and young children) and systemic solutions (e.g., policymaking and community-based initiatives) to foster resilience and promote positive early development. -
Xin Liu
Basic Life Science Research Scientist, Genetics
BioXin Liu is a postdoctoral Research Scientist in the Department of Genetics at Stanford University. Xin holds a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Her basic research interests include RNA and protein biochemistry, enzymology, cancer immunology, and autoimmune disease. She has published papers in several prestigious journals in the field of biochemistry, including Nature Communications, Journal of American Chemical Society, and Nucleic Acids Research. The highlight of her multidisciplinary research includes the development of high-throughput enzymatic methods to discover anti-microbial agents and to reveal mechanisms behind human mitochondrial diseases, as well as innovative applications of genome engineering and machine-learning to decode principles of RNA editing in human cells. Her current research focuses on the mechanistic study of innate immune pathways.
