Kenneth Ka-Shu Lee

Postgraduate Student

Kenneth is a MRes student in UCL-Yale's developmental neuroscience and psychopathology programme. He was a student researcher at the Hong Kong Jockey Club Autism Support Network, where he developed a multidisciplinary interest in the socio-cognitive development of Autism Spectrum Conditions. He is also a practitioner of Pivotal Response Training for autistic children and families in the UK. His research project will involve using functional neuroimaging to study childhood irritability in relation to hostile attribution bias towards ambiguous body movements, and parental factors. Academic work aside, he is keen to communicate the latest research findings with the community, and is working on a public open online course on early life adversity for UCL. In the future, Kenneth plans to pursue a PhD in developmental neuroscience with a focus on autism.
