In 1980, Ron Davis realized that his mind was at its dyslexic worst when he was at his creative best. This key insight led him to seek out a way to control his mental state, to find a way to consciously turn the dyslexia off at will. Research scientists are now using fMRI brain scans …

Researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York are seeking participants for a research study on dyslexia. They are examining the ways that 8-12 year-old children with dyslexia attend to and integrate sensory information (sight, hearing). To do this, To do this, they will conduct brain imaging studies and genetic testing. Parents will be provided with full diagnostic reports, at no charge.

Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) allows scientists to see the white matter fiber tracts that form the major connections among different parts of the brain. Essentially this allows researchers to see a road map of the brain. There does not appear to be any one pattern for dyslexia, but researchers have found evidence of marked structural …

Scientists can now capture images of the internal wiring of the brain, using a tool called “diffusion sensor imaging” (DTI). Research can now confirm what was once only a hypothesis: the dyslexic brain is wired differently, in a way that is far more elegant than a mere localized glitch or disruption. Ron Davis is known for …
