Model Me Kids® presents a documentary video
about Dr. Valerie Hu, a Biochemistry & Molecular Biology
Professor at George Washington. Motivated by the diagnosis
of her son with PDD-NOS, Dr. Hu used a sabbatical leave to
transform her lab into a cutting edge hub for Autism research.
In this video, Dr. Hu talks about the inspiration for her
research, some of her seminal work in the area of Autism research,
and her hopes as a parent and scientist for the future.
