    11. Gender & Sex Differences in the Brain

    We often hear that men are smarter than women, solely due to a quick brain size comparison. In today's episode, we dismantle this by citing Dotson & Duarte's work on diversity in neuroscience. Their study touches on sex differences in emotional and cognitive processing, and leaves us with a larger takeaway for how we can view male and female brains.
