Makes sense that early intervention is better considering that the brain is so much more malleable. It is still good to know that intervening in the adult years still reaps benefits. Might be a tougher road to hoe but still well worth it in my opinion. Just seems terrible that some people might not be able to enjoy the full benefits of reading because of being dyslexic. ~Engress It seems critical to detect dyslexia early but I can see how this is hard considering it is so easily mistaken for laziness or something else.

The issue over brain plasticity is true, the younger the better. However, people as old as 80 years of age have been shown to still possess a degree of brain plasticity and neurogenesis is shown to last into old age. Therefore the poor connectivity in specific neural networks which influence dyslexia, should be positively influenced in the right circumstances. Great article!
