A Possible Cause

March 1st, 2009

It’s no secret that scientists haven’t really known what causes stuttering or stammering but there’s some interesting research that suggests that it may be caused by an abnormality in the left side of the brain. A study in The Lancet suggests that a disconnection in speech-related areas in the brain is to blame.

There’s no immediate fix offered but the first step is obviouly finding a definite physical cause so it’s a step in the right direction.
