Launching Young Readers: Reading and the Brain

Exciting new technologies are allowing us to learn on a child's first day of life whether or not he'll have a hard time learning to read down the line. Find out how brain scientists in Houston, Chicago, Louisville, Washington, D.C., and Toronto are working to solve the puzzle of why some children struggle to read and others don't. Startling new research shows the answer may lie in how a child's brain is wired from birth.
