Chengyu Li, PhD

Chengyu Li received her BS and Ph.D. degrees from Zhejiang University. During her doctoral studies, her research focused on how biomolecular condensates formed through liquid-liquid phase separation regulate transcription. After completing her Ph.D., she moved to Boston and joined Dr. Heikamp’s lab as a postdoctoral fellow. She aims to continue investigating the role of biomolecular condensates in NUP98-rearranged leukemia during her postdoctoral training. 

Fun fact: She is a passionate table tennis fan and claims she can beat anyone in the lab.
