Hi Dennis, Your article provides a really helpful explanation of the current state of the research about the genetic components of stuttering. It sounds as if your research is making some promising advances. I was wondering if any of your research has (or will) focus on differentiating the genetic profiles of recovered versus chronic PWS? It would be interesting to determine if any genetic differences between the two groups existed, and if not, to extrapolate from there what environmental or psychological factors may be contributing to or detracting from recovery. Interesting article!
