We are inviting application for a PhD project aimed at characterising genetic variants associated with language disorders. This is a three year project funded by the Cunningham Trust. Email Silvia ([email protected]) for informal enquiries. See here for more...
We are delighted to have contributed a chapter to a new book edited by Lesley Rogers and Giorgio Vallortigara. The book groups a collection of methods used to study laterality in different organisms. Our chapter describes recent advances in mapping genes contributing...
Silvia has been interviewed by AcademiaNet about our work on dyslexia genetics. AcademiaNet is a portal aimed at highlighting the achievements of female researchers based across Europe. You can read the interview here.
Silvia will chair a symposium on language genetics at the forthcoming BNA2017 conference, Birmingham 10-13 March.. The aim of the symposium is to cover the most recent advances in language genetic research going from phenotype definitions to the functional dissection...
We are extremely grateful for the continuing support to our work by the Royal Society. We have been awarded a 15k research grant funding new developments in our project aimed at modeling candidate genes for dyslexia in zebrafish. This grant will provide us with...
Our new review on dyslexia genetics is now out in Advances in Genetics . We have reviewed the recent advances in both genetic mapping and functional characterisation of candidate genes, with focus on the role of cilia biology in dyslexia.
