Singing mice, songbirds, and more: models for FOXP2 function and dysfunction in human speech and language.
In 2001, a point mutation in the forkhead box P2 (FOXP2) coding sequence was identified as the basis of an inherited speech and language disorder suffered by members of the family known as "KE." This mini-symposium review focuses on recent findings and research-in-progress, primarily from...
