Draft:Steven L. Miller

Miller completed doctoral research on electrophysiological markers associated with reading disability and language-based learning disorders.^[1]

He was a co-author on research proposing that deficits in rapid auditory temporal processing contribute to language-learning impairments.^[2]

Miller was a co-author on two related studies published in Science (1996) examining auditory processing and language-learning impairments.^[3][4]

Miller co-authored neuroimaging research examining neural changes associated with behavioral remediation in children with dyslexia.^[5]

The study reported improvements in language performance and associated changes in brain activation patterns.
