Bio


Dr. Xingyao (Doria) Xiao is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford’s Graduate School of Education, working on the LEVANTE project—an international effort to better understand how children learn and develop across different cultures and contexts. Her research focuses on using advanced statistical methods, like Bayesian modeling and psychometrics, to study learning over time and improve how we measure it fairly.

At Stanford, Dr. Xiao collaborates with Professors Ben Domingue and Nilam Ram to help design research tools that work across languages, cultures, and educational systems, supporting more inclusive and accurate educational research worldwide.
