Pei X Liew is currently the Director of the Intravital Microscopy Core Facility at the Immunology Center of Georgia (IMMCG). He also manages a project that involves imaging the role of Kindlin-3 and Talin in regulating crawling and adhesion in murine neutrophils in real time using both single photon (1P) and multiphoton (2P) microscopes. The funding of this project is derived from Klaus Ley (Co-founding Director of IMMCG) and Pei Xiong is also a member of Ley Lab.
Pei X Liew attained his PhD under Dr. Paul Kubes at the University of Calgary in Canada. His Postdoctorate training was completed at Harvard Medical School under Dr. Tanya Mayadas. Pei Xiong's expertise is in Immunology and he specializes in using Intravital Microscopy to visualize the behavior and function of immune cells in live mice using Spinning Disk Confocals, Point-scanning Laser Confocals or Multiphoton microscopes.
