Lili's neurobunkum thought of the day

Are men more right-brained and women more left-brained? Dumb question, but one that nevertheless can be answered.

"...we demonstrate that left- and right-lateralized networks are homogeneously stronger among a constellation of hubs in the left and right hemispheres, but that such connections do not result in a subject-specific global brain lateralization difference that favors one network over the other (i.e. left-brained or right-brained)."

"...we saw no differences in functional lateralization with gender."
