"The Anatomy of Reading"
Bob Dougherty
Psychology
Proficient reading is an impressive skill that requires precise coordination of various cognitive, sensory, and motor systems. I will review the anatomical substrate underlying these systems and discuss how individual variations in the brain can hinder the acquisition of skilled reading.

About the Speaker: Bob Dougherty is at the Stanford Institute for Reading and Learning, part of VISTA (Vision, Imaging Science, and Technology Activities)
