Abstract: In this paper, we establish an $epsilon$-regularity criterion for any weak solution $(u,d)$ to the nematic liquid crystal flow (1.1) such that $(u,ablad)in{L}_t^p{L}_x^q$ for some $pge2$ and $qgen$ satisfying the condition (1.2). As consequences, we prove the interior smoothness of any such a solution when $p>2$ and $q>n$. We also show that uniqueness holds for the class of weak solutions $(u,d)$ the Cauchy problem of the nematic liquid crystal flow (1.1) that satisfy $(u,ablad)in{L}_t^p{L}_x^q$ for some $p>2$ and $q>n$ satisfying (1.2).
