Summary
(1) Neuronal migration genes: Dyslexia- and dyscalculia-related variants of the genes DCDC2, DYX1C1, KIAA0319, and ROBO1 might not properly guide young nerve cells to their target position in the cortex (neuronal migration). These associations have been most consistently found for the parietal cortex, which is related to reading (e.g., phonological short-term memory) and maths (e.g., numerosity detection).
