Dr Liow has been awarded the Nurturing Clinician Scientist Scheme grant in 2020 to study the use of artificial intelligence in Orthopaedic imaging. He is currently interested in immunopathology of osteoarthritis, medical device development for osteoarthritis treatment, use of augmented reality in orthopaedic surgery and arthroplasty related biomechanics.

He is constantly studying the clinical outcomes of primary and revision knee and hip arthroplasty to provide the best care for his patients
