Most probably not. Stuttering is deeply ingrained in the brain...

I love your fire!! This is what we need to be screaming. Pharmaceuticals/technology/psychedelics/nueroscience/implants. All these areas and companies need to be lobbied for advancement in stuttering...

I think things are being misunderstood, not looking for a cure but like you are saying you are keeping the door open for future advancement in technology. We are saying it’s TIME FOR US TO PUSH those ...

I'm not saying to not pursue all avenues and continue to research. I do think the solution will be brain interfacing when they map out the entire brain and can manipulate its function and pinpoint wh...
