Why the Brain Isn’t Binary: DLS Recap on Rethinking Sex and Gender as a Mosaic

The lecture introduced central concepts in sex-based brain research and gendered neuroscience, with a focus on rethinking traditional binary models of the brain. Through vivid examples and data-driven insights, Professor Joel explored how unsupervised algorithms, anomaly detection, and brain architecture analyses can be used to challenge conventional perspectives and offer alternative interpretations of brain clustering methods. Participants were encouraged to reflect on how categories such as male and female are stereotypically constructed, applied, and questioned within both scientific and social frameworks.
