Tianyu Liu

I am a PhD in nuclear engineering and science, and currently a software engineer at Nvidia.

Previously I worked in academia for 9 years in the field of computational medical physics. My research interest included Monte Carlo simulation of radiation transport, radiation dosimetry, quantitative analysis of medical images, most of which revolved around developing GPU-accelerated software. This paved the way for my later career as a GPU developer.

I’m an avid fan of video games, single player FPS and RPG in particular. In my spare time I’ve been developing my own open-source video game named Quarter Life (now in indefinite hiatus due to my life and work commitments), with Quake-style movement and fun game mechanics.

Another hobby of mine is humor arts. My wife and I run an Etsy store BiuBu Wonderland. I design and draw the funny cartoon characters, while my talented wife, who is a designer and artist, creates all the architectures, landscape, and performs water-coloring.
