KDKA reports that Liu, 37, was a research assistant professor at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, which said he was “on the verge of making very significant findings toward understanding the cellular mechanisms that underlie SARS-CoV-2 infection and the cellular basis of the following complications.” His department added, “We will make an effort to complete what he started in an effort to pay homage to his scientific excellence.” No motive for the crime has been disclosed.
