New progress on the genetic factors involved in dyslexia

Three studies conducted by an international consortium, published in the journals Molecular Psychiatry, PNAS and Nature Genetics, have revealed several dozens of genes associated with dyslexia and reading skills. These analyses, performed on a large number of participants, have enabled scientists to detect the first genetic variations associated with dyslexia and reading skills in genes involved in the development of brain regions that control language.
