Neuroscientists Discover Distinct Brain Network Patterns for Sex and Gender in Young People
Broke On: Friday, 12 July 2024Neuroscientists Elvisha Dhamala and her team identified distinct brain network patterns associated with sex and gender in young people based on functional brain imaging data from over 4,700 children in the US. Using predictive modeling, they found that sex was linked to visual processing, motor control, sensory processing regions, and some executive functions. Gender was related more broadly to executive function and possibly impacted networks supporting attention and social cognition. The findings could lead to more nuanced approaches in medical contexts for equal treatment based on sex and gender.
