International Research Collaboration Investigating Musicians with Dyslexia

Emma Moore and Katie Overy collaborated with researchers at Harvard Medical School/Boston Children’s Hospital to investigate auditory and speech processing abilities in musicians with dyslexia. The study compared musicians and non-musicians with dyslexia with typical musicians to explore the connection between musical training and auditory processing abilities relevant to speech. The results of the project have been accepted for publication in the Journal of Psychology General and the full text article is available from http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1535373/1/Welch_Zuk%20et%20al%20%202017%20dyslexia.pdf
