With support from a grant awarded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (R01 HD086011, PI: Horowitz-Kraus), the RLDC launches a study of an online reading intervention for dyslexia. Dr. Tzipi Horowitz-Kraus and colleagues at Cincinnati Children’s, Kennedy Krieger Institute, Washington University, and The Technion Institute of Technology in Israel, will test a new intervention. This intervention targets executive functions as a cause for nonfluent reading in children ages 8 to 12 years of age. The study will enroll 120 children with and without reading difficulties over the next 5 years.
