Hi Dr. Drayna, I had a couple of questions for you (you may remember me from the NSA Rockville Chapter :-)): 1. Is there any research being done or planned on the possible role of epigenetics on stuttering? 2. I read an interesting article recently that talked about challenges to the so called "common variant hypothesis" (see http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=revolution-postponed What does that mean for genetic research into stuttering. Should researchers focus more on the genetics of extremely severe stutterers?
