Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims at investigating the role of low-gamma activity in phonemic encoding and its implication in dyslexia. Indeed, a phonological deficit, i.e. a difficulty in perceiving the sounds of speech, is strongly suspected in dyslexia but has never been conclusively associated with a specific underlying mechanism.

The study employs transcranial alternating current stimulation in adults with and without dyslexia to exploit the effect of the stimulation on phonemic processing and neural activity measured with electroencephalography. In doing so, it would be possible to establishing a causal link between gamma oscillations and the phonological deficit in dyslexia.
