A new study reveals men with dyslexia have altered structural connections between the thalamus and auditory cortex on the left side of the brain.
Using mouse models, researchers restricted a key chemical messenger to extend efficient auditory learning until much later in life. Disrupting adenosine signaling in the auditory thalamus allowed researchers to extend the window for auditory learning well into adulthood and far beyond the current critical period.
