A recent brain-imaging study has confirmed the theory that dyslexia and IQ are independent.

On June 21, researchers at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden discovered that DCDC2, one of the many genes linked to dyslexia, has a very unusual and previously unknown function: it regulates the cilia, or antenna-like projections, that cells use to communicate.

In their book titled The Dyslexic Advantage, scheduled for publication beginning August 18, 2011, Drs. Brock and Fernette Eide discuss emerging evidence in the field of neuroscience which suggests that people with dyslexia possess unique cognitive gifts.
