We are still recruiting participants for our research on dyslexia. The information about the study is below – please feel free to call or email us if you have any questions or are interested in participating.
The researchers at the Cognitive Neuroscience of Language Laboratory are interested in how the mind and brain process language. Currently, we are conducting different types of research about dyslexia.

We recently heard a lot of about the now-famous OpenDyslexic font developed by Abelardo Gonzalez. The font has been praised by some, received mixed-reviews, or seen as not serving its intended purpose by others. Regardless, many are implementing the font. A quick check of the OpenDyslexic Facebook page or “Products” section of the website will show just how many apps, sites, and books are using OpenDyslexic.
Interestingly, Christian Boer also developed a font aimed at individuals with dyslexia called Dyslexie which was released in 2008 (about four years before OpenDyslexic).

On May 30th – June 1st, the Basque Center on Cognition, Brain, and Language is hosting IWORDD – International Workshop on Reading and Developmental Dyslexia. This 3-day workshop is divided into two parts which will focus on different theoretical and practical issues on dyslexia.
The first part of the workshop will be on May 30th-31st and is called “Theoretical Perspectives.” Theoretical Perspectives will consist of 6 main debates in the field of reading and dyslexia research. The topics are of central interest to many working in the field of dyslexia. The topics include “Results and non-results in the neuroimaging of dyslexia,” “The nature of the visual deficits in developmental dyslexia,” and “Comorbidities associated with reading disabilities: a new window on the dyslexia phenotype” among others. Poster presentations and talks will be held in-between debates. Continue reading
