Large-scale genome-wide analyses of stuttering - Nature Genetics Genome-wide analyses in over one million self-reported cases and controls identify genetic variants associated with stuttering and find genetic correlations with autism, depression and impaired musica...

Exciting paper on genetic influences on speech fluency, out now in @natgenet.nature.com. In a big step forward for the field, genome scans of almost 100,000 people with self-reported stuttering, & 1 million controls, identify 57 associated loci. Great work by @piperbelow.bsky.social & her team.🗣️🧬🧪

Neurophysiological Evidence of Sensory Prediction Errors Driving Speech Sensorimotor Adaptation The human sensorimotor system has a remarkable ability to learn movements from sensory experience. A prominent example is sensorimotor adaptation, learning that characterizes the sensorimotor system's...
