Dyslexia-linked genetic variant decreases midline crossing of auditory pathways
(Aalto University) Finnish scientists have found that a rare dyslexia-linked genetic variant of the ROBO1 gene decreases normal crossing of auditory pathways in the human brain. The weaker the expression of the gene is, the more abnormal is the midline crossing. The results link, for the first time, a dyslexia-susceptibility gene to a specific sensory function of the human brain. (Source: EurekAlert! - Medicine and Health)
