Flipboard Science Desk<p>Humans have been hunting for sex-based differences in the brain dating back to at least ancient Greece. Yet a scientist observing a female and male brain in a lab can’t tell them apart. "I'm not aware of any measure you can make of the human brain where the male and female distributions don't overlap," Dr. Armin Raznahan told Live Science. That said, the question of how male and female brains differ may still matter. <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.com/@LiveScience" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>LiveScience</span></a></span> has more:</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/iCwGqz" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/iCwGqz</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Humans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Humans</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Brains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brains</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Health</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Neurology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Neurology</span></a></p>
