Dr. Liang’s group uses human cardiomyocytes (isolated from patient biopsy samples; or derived from iPSCs generated with patient cells), CRISPR/Cas9 (for genome engineering and disease modeling), and patch-clamp and optical mapping (for studies of cellular and tissue electrical activities), as well as routine techniques in biochemistry and cell biology.
