This paper,”Microstructural properties of the cerebellar peduncles in children with developmental language disorder,” uses advanced imaging techniques to examine how well certain brain pathways that connect the cerebellum to language-related areas function. The goal was to see if there are differences in how these connections are structured between children with DLD and typically developing children. The results suggest changes in how these pathways are structured in children with DLD. Showing that the cerebellum plays an important role in language development. This gives us a new understanding about the neurobiological reasons behind DLD.
