OSCCI is funded by a programme grant from the Wellcome trust, and is headed by Principal Investigator, Professor Dorothy Bishop. We study the underlying nature of children's communication problems. Our primary focus is on developmental language disorder (DLD), but we are also interested in related conditions such as autism spectrum disorder and dyslexia.
