New Delhi: Former IIT Delhi computer science student Ragini Verma has discovered gender differences in the human brain.


She has created the first ever map of neural circuitry.

A study led by Ragini Verma, an associate professor of radiology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, has revealed significant differences between men and women in the structural connections linking different regions of their brains.

Maps of neural circuitry showed that on average women's brains were highly connected across the left and right hemispheres, in contrast to men's brains, where the connections were typically stronger between the front and back regions.
