This volume of Progress in Brain Research documents recent developments and research findings in relation to sex and how the brain’s function and behavior differs from men to women. Specific areas include cerebral function, morphology and organisation, sexual dimorphism, neural origins, genetics and epigenetics, as well as potential causes/affects of stress, pain, sexual orientation and identity and other social issues such as distribution of disorders across the sexes and autism.



* Informs and updates on all the latest developments in the field
* Contributions from leading authorities and industry experts

Dr. Savics group is a member of the Stockholm Brain Institute (SBI), a center at the Karolinska Institute for Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience. Her research focuses on the cognitive and emotional decline related to chronic stress as a recognized phenomenon and understanding the underlying mechanisms. They are applying several brain imaging techniques, including PET, to investigate how the human brain is affected by psychosocial stress, and explain the reported emotional and cognitive decline related to stress. The aim is to find biochemical markers of chronic psychosocial stress and develop new treatment strategies.
