Reid Lyon, who has served as chief of the branch of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development that has funded research on Learning Disabilities for nearly 15 years, will resign at the end of June. Lyon is known for his extensive efforts to promote effective instruction in reading, having helped steer studies of phonological awareness, phonics, and other aspects of decoding as well as related studies about the neuropsychological aspects of reading and working vigorously to promote the application of the results of those studies.
