The original Ericksen-Leslie's model for liquid crystals includes the inertia effect, the corresponding balance laws includes second material derivatives. This system includes a coupling of Navier-Stokes equations with a S^2 valued hyperbolic system. In this talk, we review our recent work on the well-posedness of this hyperbolic Ericksen-Leslie's liquid crystal model and the justification of the zero inertia limit to the parabolic model which has been extensively studied in the past three decades. This is a series work joint with Luo, Tang, Zarnescu, and Huang, Zhao, respectively.
