Language-specific tuning of visual cortex? Functional properties of the Visual Word Form Area. (2002, background): “Although the VWFA is probably not the primary origin of dyslexia (Habib, 2000), it is one of the brain regions that do not activate normally in dyslexic subjects during reading (Helenius et al., 1999; Paulesu et al., 2001).”
Musical training influences linguistic abilities in 8-year-old children: more evidence for brain plasticity. (2009, background): “…analysis, as well as sound segmentation and blending (Lamb and Gregory 1993), also improves the development of the phonological representations necessary for reading (Swan and Goswami 1997; Habib 2000; Anvari et al. 2002; Foxton et al. 2003; Overy 2003; Gaab et al. 2005; Tallal and Gaab 2006).”
The Heritability of Language: A Review and Metaanalysis of Twin, Adoption, and Linkage Studies (2001, background): “(For a comprehensive review of the neural bases of developmental dyslexia, see Grigorenko 2001, Habib 2000) The second route is to determine what proteins are coded for in the loci linked with written- and spoken-language disorders and see whether aberrations in any of these proteins could…”
Race, Behavior, and The Brain: The Role of Neuroimaging in Understanding Complex Social Behaviors (2003, background): “For example, recent research has shown different brain activity patterns during reading in individuals with dyslexia (e.g. Habib, 2000).”
