Learning difficulties due to poor connectivity, not specific brain regions

Combining neuroimaging data with machine learning technology, researchers discover children with well-connected brain hubs have either very specific cognitive problems, such as poor listening skills, or no cognitive difficulties at all. Children with poorly connected hubs have widespread and severe cognitive difficulties. Read More
