Learn about UCSF MULTITUDES The UCSF Dyslexia Center developed and continues to maintain and innovate a digital platform, called Multitudes. Free for all California public schools, this platform aids in the early identification of kindergarten, first grade, and second grade students who may face challenges learning to read. Early identification can lead to early intervention. With the right support, more California students can learn to read, leading to more equitable educational and health outcomes. Multitudes and the UCSF Dyslexia Center are part of the ALBA Language Neurobiology laboratory, directed by Dr. Maria Luisa Gorno Tempini. Located in the UCSF Neurology Department's Memory and Aging Center, the ALBA Lab studies how language is organized into brain networks across the lifespan. Our group researches how language skills and brain regions are impacted by neurological conditions and how they reorganize in response. Our multidisciplinary team correlates behavioral research with multimodal neuroimaging techniques to understand the neural underpinning of higher cognitive functions such as speech, language, and memory. In particular, we research two syndromes: Primary Progressive Aphasia and Dyslexia. Dr. Gorno Tempini is also co-director of the UCSF|UC Berkeley Schwab Center for Dyslexia and Cognitive Diversity. Together with the UCSF Dyslexia Center, these centers aim to eliminate the debilitating effects of developmental dyslexia while supporting the relative strengths of each individual. We develop best practice protocols to assess and diagnose children with dyslexia and other learning differences through a multimodal cognitive and neuroimaging program. We work closely with schools and educators to develop early interventions and educational strategies to help children with dyslexia thrive.
