Dr Haipei Liu is an ARC Discovery Early Career Researcher Award (DECRA) fellow at the School of Agriculture, Food and Wine. Her project investigates the epigenetic regulatory mechanisms that control cereal grain quality and yield under water-deficit and heat stress. In 2016 Dr Liu was awarded her PhD at the University of Adelaide with Dean’s Commendation for Doctoral Thesis Excellence. Her research has provided novel insights for improving cereal crops with higher yield and enhanced stress tolerance. Dr Liu's research is dedicated to benefit the Australian cereal industry by providing more-tailored screening strategies and superior parental germplasm with enhanced quality and yield.
