What are the structural, chemical, and functional variations in the brain based on gender? The current issue of Scientific America has an article, His Brain, Her Brain.

His Brain, Her Brain




Can brains have gender? Are men and women wired differently?
Are there gender based brain differences that make women more empathetic? Does they doom men to be less faithful? How much of our development is built on a blank slate, how much influenced by our biology?

How does gender different bio-chemical levels of things like hormones impact neurological function?
What impact does that have on us in our lives, in our development, in our reaching our full potential?
How does such chemistry influence relationships?


Come bring your brain, and join us as we explore the science of brain and gender.



Is this an accurate map of male and female brains?
