Check out this piece in @newyorker.com “#Dyslexia and the #Reading Wars,” by David Owen.
I had the pleasure of meeting David this summer at the GaabLab and chatting with him about dyslexia, the brain, and the critical importance of early identification. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

As 2025 slowly ends, it is time to reflect on the ups & downs.
