Neuroanatomy of Reading in Congenital Deafness.

December 15, 2025 updated by: University Hospital, Strasbourg, France

Phonological Perception and Learning to Read : the Neuroanatomy of Reading in Congenitally Deaf Persons

The aim of the research is to investigate phonological processing in deafness and to examine its influence on the neuroanatomy of reading.The basic hypothesis is that insofar as the ability to read is closely related to the ability to segment and represent speech units, the neuroanatomy of reading in deaf would be different from the one of hearing readers.
