Dr. Liu is chief physician and administrative director of Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery and General Surgery, Renji Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, director of Shanghai Institute of Oncology, director of Shanghai Institute of Biliary Tract Diseases, deputy director of the State Key Laboratory of Oncogenes and Related Genes,member of the Liver Surgery Group, Surgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, standing committee member of the Surgery Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, deputy director of the Surgery Branch, Shanghai Medical Association, president-elect of the Biliary Tract Tumor Committee, Chinese Anti-Cancer Association, deputy director of the Pancreatic Disease Committee, Chinese Research Hospital Association.
Dr. Liu specializes in both clinical and basic research in hepatopancreatobiliary surgery, with particular expertise in the standardized surgical resection and multidisciplinary treatment of gallbladder cancer, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, hilar cholangiocarcinoma, and pancreatic cancer.
He pioneered the innovative “bundled pancreaticojejunostomy” technique and was the first in China to propose the concept of total mesopancreas excision for pancreatic head cancer.
Internationally, Dr. Liu was the first to systematically identify the somatic mutation landscape and key tumor-driving genes and signaling pathways (notably the ErbB signaling pathway) associated with gallbladder cancer. He also established the world’s first lymphatic metastasis model for gallbladder cancer and successfully developed the GBC-SD/HL cell line, characterized by high lymphatic metastatic potential.
Dr. Liu has devoted more than 40 years to clinical practice and academic teaching, preforming over 7000 surgeries, with a focus on hepatopancreatobiliary surgery, which includes:
Molecular biological mechanisms of gallbladder cancer initiation and progression
Early diagnosis of gallbladder cancer
Comprehensive treatment of gallbladder cancer
Application of translational medicine in gallbladder cancer
As principal investigator, he has led multiple national multicenter clinical studies, advancing precision medicine in gallbladder cancer and promoting the clinical application of targeted therapies. He also established the largest multicenter single-disease database for gallbladder cancer in China, providing critical guidance for the standardized diagnosis and treatment of this disease.
