Brief Introduction
Dr Shuting Huo obtained her PhD degree in special education in 2018 at The University of British Columbia. Dr Huo seeks to answer the question why children differ in the fundamental academic skills, i.e., word reading, arithmetic, and second language literacy (English). She specializes in quantitative approaches and cognitive-linguistic assessment. Her recent work utilizes the neuroimaging method, EEG, to investigate the cognitive neurological mechanisms underlying the academic foundations in children.
