Biography

Dr. Toh's research interest is in one of the well-known no-go theorems in quantum physics, namely the Kochen-Specker theorem, which states that the only hidden-variable theories allowed by quantum physics are contextual ones. Besides, he is also interested in research regarding the thinking skills used in physics learning. Dr. Toh has been an education columnist for Oriental Daily since March 2020. He has more than 20 years of teaching experience.
