C. Contribution to Science
https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=suBaIE4AAAAJ&hl=en:
C.1. The first substantive area of work is in nutrition where since the early 1990s Dr. Liu has been studying the roles of carbohydrates in the development of health outcomes (ultimately refuting the classical “diet-heart” hypothesis). Using biomarkers, his research was among the first to define and quantify dietary glycemic load (GL) in humans, then a novel nutritional measure that is now widely used in the clinical management of diabetes and many dietary studies around the world. Dr. Liu was the first to prospectively investigate dietary GL and refined carbohydrates concerning cardiometabolic outcomes in large cohorts of men and women of diverse ethnicities (Liu AJE 1994; Liu 199; JAMA 1999; 2000; AJCN 1999;2000; 2001; 2003, *Gross et al. AJCN 2004, Liu Diabetes 2006). Funded by the CDC and NIH from 1993 to 2005, his team developed, refined, and validated dietary GL and quantify their functional roles in the development of a wide range of biochemical intermediaries and clinical outcomes in both observational and experimental settings. Using biomarkers of lipids (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, HDL, and triglycerides, TG), inflammation (high-sensitivity C reactive protein, hsCRP, IL-6, and TNFalphaR2), endothelial dysfunction markers (ICAM, VCAM, and E-selectin), and aging (Telomere length), Dr. Liu's team determined the physiologic relevancies and clinical utilities of GL in several cohorts of men and women in the US, China, Sweden, and Brazil (Liu et al. AJCN 2001; 2002; Ford and Liu JAMA 2001). Together with Professor Walter Willett at Harvard University, he has authored several authoritative chapters/reviews/textbooks including the most widely used online medical textbook of UpToDate since 2004 (Liu and Willett 2004-2020 updated in 16 editions). Dr. Liu's lab was also the first to prospectively identified dietary magnesium to glucose homeostasis characterizing several significant gene-diet interactions in T2D development (*Song et al. Diabetes Care 2007 and BMC Med Genet 2009; *Chan et al. JCEM 2014), including a functional variant of the TRMP6 gene (responsible for magnesium active transport) that was shown to increase T2D susceptibility whose effects only expressed among women with low magnesium intake. Subsequently, Dr. Liu designed and conducted two randomized-controlled intervention trials testing the clinical efficacy of magnesium supplementation among overweight/obese individuals or among obese mothers and their offspring for preventing diabetes-related phenotypes. These trials show that Mg supplementation in vulnerable populations significantly decreases insulin resistance as characterized by differential regulation of genes and proteins related to metabolic and inflammatory pathways (*Chacko et al. AJCN 2010; *Cho et al. 2013).
C.2. The second area is in the clinical epidemiology and methodologic space where his work has contributed to the development of a systematic framework for the causal assessment and integration of diverse data sources -- G6P Analytics®(global, precision, prediction, personalized, prevention, population, and policy) in precision medicine and global health (Liu Atherosclerosis 2003; Gross* et al. AJCN 2004; *Song et al. Annals of Intern Med 2003 and AJHG 2004; *Hao et al. Genet Epidemiol 2005; *Wang et al. BMC Bioinformatics 2005; *Chao et al. Arch Int Med/JAMA 2010; Liu and Song Diabetes 2010). The G6P Analytics® framework employs multidisciplinary methods focused on integration, interpretation, implementation, and innovation, which has contributed to an improved approach in studying the potential causal roles of dietary, biochemical, and genetic factors for risk of complex diseases such as T2D risk and CVD (*Song et al. AJHG 2004; Ann Intern Med/JAMA 2004; Human Molecular Genetics 2007). Ongoing work includes the assessment of genomic variants, specific gene-gene, nutrient-nutrient, gene-nutrient, environmental metal-mineral interactions for biological insights, target validations, and prediction of clinical outcomes in diverse populations.
C.3. While actively pursuing answers to the mechanistic questions related to inflammation and endothelial dysfunction (Liu Arch Int Med/JAMA 2007; *Song et al. Diabetes 2007 and Diabetes Care 2007) and sex differences in cardiometabolic outcomes of interest (Willett 1999), his group conducted the first comprehensive and systematic assessment of the roles of sex hormones and their binding globulin (SHBG) in the development of cardiometabolic outcomes in diverse populations (*Ding et al. JAMA 2006; Diabetologia 2007; NEJM 2009; Li et al. Diabetes Care 2010; *Chen et al. Clinical Chemistry 2012; Madsen et al Stroke 2020). This work shows that specific levels of sex-steroids and SHBG may explain a longstanding paradox regarding sex-specific differences in cardiometabolic outcomes observed in clinical settings; his team was also the first in identifying several germline mutations in the SHBG gene that influence the risk of developing T2D (one increases while the other decreases risk). Dr. Liu and collaborators have subsequently shown in multiple populations around the world the direct role of SHBG in affecting T2D risk (*Ding et al. NEJM 2009; Frayling et al. HMG 2010; *Chen et al Clinical Chemistry 2012). Further work has since demonstrated that circulating levels of SHBG can be used not only as a predictive marker for genetic susceptibility of developing T2D but also as a cumulative measure of gene-environment interaction in affecting the clustering of metabolic syndrome and T2D risk (*Goto et al. Diabetes 2010; Li et al. Diabetes Care 2010; *Chen et al. Clin Chem 2012).
C.4. The third main area is in global health where Dr. Liu has devoted much effort to the development of evidence-based clinical and population health precision practices for chronic disease prevention and control with special emphasis on health disparity and particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Particularly in China, Brazil, and Ghana, Dr. Liu has helped establish several large clinical and population studies of cardiometabolic outcomes across individuals’ lifespan and generations. Some of these studies are still ongoing including 1) The Shanghai Obesity and Diabetes Study (SOS) (*Xu et al., BMC public health 2010, Wang et al. Obesity 2016; Diabetes 2016); 2) The prospective study of Brazilian Cardiovascular Health (Elsa Brasil) (*Lin et al. JAHA 2015); 3) The Harbin Famine Study of Families (*Li et al., AJCN 2016); and 4) The Ghana National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (Li et al. JAHA 2020). He has collaborated with colleagues worldwide in developing and integrating state-of-the-art biochemical, genetic, and dietary assessment into both observational studies and clinical intervention following the G6P analytical framework (Liu Diabetes 2006; *Hsu et al. Diabetes 2008; Liu and Sun, J of Diabetes 2018). These clinical and epidemiological resources will prove to be of unique value for young and aspiring investigators who want to seek answers to some of the age-old questions of biological and global health significance.

C.5. Dr. Liu is committed to mentoring and training young scientists (over the years, he has directly supervised >100 trainees who have first-authored >100 peer-reviewed publications), and some of them are now independent investigators and leaders in medical and health sciences centers around the world. At Harvard, UCLA, and Brown, Dr. Liu has developed and taught eight courses and founded two pioneering programs, the BWF Interschool Program in Metabolic Diseases (BWF-IT-MD) and Population Genomics and Nutrition (PGN) that aimed to build our nation’s very first doctoral program in metabolic diseases by unifying the multidisciplinary population- and lab-based sciences. To date, Dr. Liu has given >170 invited lectures and public symposia internationally.

Environmental degradation and exposure to heavy metals (over which individuals often have little control) may have a direct impact on cardiovascular diseases (CVD) development. The ongoing Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (in Portuguese, ‘Estudo Longitudinal de Sau´ de do Adulto’, ELSA-Brasil), the only large prospective study established in South America, represents a unique resource to study the roles of multiple metal exposures and their interactions with dietary trace elements in affecting CVD risk. Specifically, we aim to determine if antagonistic effects of metals exist and if trace elements could reduce the toxic metal impact on CVD outcomes in men and women participated in ELSA_Brasil with the hope that this work would lead to simple, safe, readily available, and highly-affordable nutritional intervention for CVD prevention that will have both clinical and public health significance worldwide.

We plan to integrate information on relevant genetic variations, plasma levels of biochemical markers, and clinical phenotypes of obesity and type 2 diabetes incidence using state-of-the-art methodology. Achieving the specific aims in our application will be a major step toward the timely and cost-efficient development of novel diagnostic and/or therapeutic strategies for the prevention and control of obesity and type 2 diabetes in human populations

To meet the challenge of understanding the explosion of biological data for etiologic inquiry, biomedical scientists need to be proficient in applying epidemiologic principles and methodologies to critically and quantitatively evaluate and synthesize research data (e.g. “evidence-based” decision-making concerning personalized medicine and public health). Dr. Liu has mentored graduate and undergraduate students and postgraduate trainees at Harvard, UCLA, and Brown University. While at Harvard, he taught a semester-long graduate course on research synthesis and meta-analysis where he developed several case studies in both clinical and public health settings. Dr. Liu also introduced the assessment of high-throughput biotechnology and genomic science into research synthesis and meta-analysis and taught epidemiologists to go beyond the traditional assessment of environmental risk factors while at the same time critically and systematically addressing an “epidemic of information/misinformation”. The course curriculum emphasized the application of classical research synthesis methods and the principles of evidence-based medicine to the exploration and integration of biological and clinical data. At UCLA, Dr. Liu developed and taught a series of four courses covering the epidemiology of "diabesity" and its complications and topics in nutrition and genomics. The main goal of these courses was to teach students how to sensibly incorporate, analyze, and interpret emerging genetic data in the context of other phenotypic variables traditionally assessed by epidemiologists. In 2009, Dr. Liu won an award from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund and founded the UCLA inter-school Training Program in Metabolic Diseases (BWF-IT-MD, http://mdtp.mednet.ucla.edu) that integrates training in both laboratory and population sciences to provide a comprehensive transdisciplinary education in all facets of metabolic diseases. Some of these innovative teaching program were made available to a broader professional audience in several public symposia. These included “Translational Research for Metabolic Disease Prevention: From Molecules to Populations” that was broadcasted by the University of California TV network (UCTV) (www.uctv.edu or http://www.youtube.com) and lectures to medical students, residents, and faculty at medical grand rounds throughout the United States and internationally. Dr. Liu has played leadership roles as PI and co-I of numerous grants studying the epidemiology of chronic diseases in multiple diverse populations around the world. He is currently PI of three R01s investigating environmental, nutritional, and genetic determinants for diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases in the US, China, Brazil, and Ghana. As an internationally recognized scholar in population health, Dr. Liu has established several scientific resources for training young scientists globally for over two decades. He has directly mentored >100 trainees and developed several novel trans-disciplinary training programs, including the Genomics and Nutrition Program and the Burroughs Wellcome Fund Inter-school Training Program in Metabolic Diseases at UCLA, and the Global Cardiometabolic Health Program at Brown.
