Sihang Liu joined the Cheriton School of Computer Science as an Assistant Professor in 2023. He has a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Virginia, where he was advised by Professor Samira Khan. His doctoral research focused on building system support for a new memory technology called persistent memory, spanning both the software and hardware stacks. He has a B.S. degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the University of Michigan through the dual-degree program.

"I am primarily in the Systems and Networking group," Li explains. "I see many opportunities to collaborate with the world-class researchers in my research group. As I conduct computer architecture research, I see new architecture features will require systems and networking support. For example, accelerators can be integrated into programmable NICs to achieve higher efficiency."
