Chiu-Chu Melissa Liu

Chiu-Chu Melissa Liu (simplified Chinese: 刘秋菊; traditional Chinese: 劉秋菊; pinyin: Liú Qiujú; born December 15, 1974) is a Taiwanese mathematician who works as a professor of mathematics at Columbia University. Her research interests include algebraic geometry and symplectic geometry.[1]

Education

Liu graduated from National Taiwan University in 1996, and earned her Ph.D. in 2002 from Harvard University under the supervision of Shing-Tung Yau.[1][2]

Career

After continuing at Harvard as a Junior Fellow, she took a faculty position at Northwestern University, and moved to Columbia in 2006.[1]

Liu won the Morningside Silver Medal in 2007.[1] She was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 2010.[1] In 2012, she became one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[3]
