How Science Informs Policy and Practice on Reading with Ola Ozernov-Palchik, PhD

Ola Ozernov-Palchik, PhD, joins READ to discuss her work in dyslexia, neuroscience, and early literacy policy. She explores the paradox of dyslexia—why early identification is critical yet often delayed—and how neuroimaging research uncovers the brain's role in reading development and challenges. In this episode, you'll learn:

• What neuroscience studies reveal about reading acquisition and dyslexia
• How research informs universal screening and early literacy policies
• The successes and challenges of translating research into advocacy and practice

Dr. Ozernov-Palchik's work bridges research, education, and advocacy, offering insights into the future of reading science and education.
