Are certain differences between men and women innate, or are they the end-product of experience? In this program, specialists from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, the University of Pennsylvania, Kennedy Krieger Institute, and McMaster University define and explore a number of the intriguing and sometimes puzzling differences between the brains of men and women. Far from insignificant, these differences can affect aging, reading ability, spatial skills, aggression, depression, schizophrenia, and sexuality. (57 minutes)
