The BDNF Val66Met Polymorphism Influences Reading Ability and Patterns of Neural Activation in Children.
Understanding how genes impact the brain's functional activation for learning and cognition during development remains limited. We asked whether a common genetic variant in the BDNF gene (the Val66Met polymorphism) modulates neural activation in the young brain during a critical period for the...
