Dr. Harry Schneider New Findings in Brain Areas and Their Connections That Explain the Lack of Speech in Children

This lecture will be a follow up to the work we have been doing at Columbia University on the areas and connections of the brain that have been shown to be dysfunctional - using functional MRI. Based on the findings of that investigational study - which is being submitted for publication - we have been stimulating select brain areas together with novel linguistic techniques, which have shown language restoration in more than 85% of the children in the program. Next year, the results of these therapeutic studies will also be submitted for publication.
