New Paper: Thalamic Brain Dysfunction in Dyslexia: A Breakthrough in Understanding the Most Common Learning Disorder

Our research team headed by neuroscientist Prof. Katharina von Kriegstein at TUD Dresden University of Technology confirms that developmental dyslexia is linked to changes in the function and structure of a specific part of the human brain known as the visual thalamus. Their findings belong to the largest and most comprehensive high-resolution MRI study targeting this area. The study has now been published in the journal ‘Brain’.
