Biology of Sex Differences is calling for submissions to our Collection on Sex Differences and Similarities in the Human Brain.
Biology of Sex Differences invites authors to submit empirical studies, meta-analyses, and theoretical articles to this special collection that aims to address on what and where sex-related variation can be found, but also how large or small, and how relevant or trivial these differences seem to be. Topics may include structural and functional sex-based divergences and similarities at the micro or macro level, their relationship with behavior, and/ or with neurological and psychiatric disorders.
