CAT Lab Researcher Xiaoxue Fu Defends Dissertation

Congratulations to CAT Lab graduate student Xiaoxue Fu who has successfully defended her dissertation!

Dr. Fu is a graduate student in the developmental program. Her program of research examines how visual attention to the environment relates to social behavior. To investigate her questions, she spearheaded the mobile eye-tracking project, which allowed her to examine how children of different temperaments attend to strangers in the environment.

In the fall, Jessie will start a 3-year post-doctoral position with Dr. Eric Nelson at the Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital. Additionally, she will have an appointment as a Clinical Instructor in the Department of Pediatrics at the Ohio State University.
