The work provides more definitive evidence […]

Imaging study shows little difference between poor readers with low IQ and poor readers with high IQ Last year, Fumiko Hoeft, MD, PhD, authored a study that used sophisticated brain imaging to predict with 90 percent accuracy which teenagers with dyslexia would improve their reading skills over time. Now the Stanford imaging expert has turned […]
