Collaborations
Our studies are carried out in collaboration with the SLI Consortium (SLIC), a group of scientists in the UK who are working together to unravel the role that genetics plays in the development of SLI. A full list of current SLIC members can be found in all our publications and in the table below.
In addition, we collaborate closely with:
Anthony Monaco from the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics on integrated studies of dyslexia, autism and SLI.
Simon Fisher from the Max Planck Institute for psycholinguistics on genomic studies of SLI.
Samantha Knight from the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics on copy number variant studies of SLI.
Pia Villanueva from the Univeristy of Chile on the Robinson Crusoe project.
