#Trans identities are missing from our #datasets, meaning that their experiences in a number of domains cannot be studied quantitatively. The way in which many of our datasets are constructed reinforces a cis-normative understanding of the world, where people are pushed into the false #binary of describing themselves as either male or female. #SocialScience#LGBTQ#sflorg https://www.sflorg.com/2024/03/ss03292401.html
Study participants born in the 1970s had 6.6% larger #brain volumes and almost 15% larger brain surface area than those born in the 1930s. The researchers hypothesize the increased brain size may lead to an increased brain reserve, potentially reducing the overall risk of age-related #dementias. #Neuroscience#sflorg https://www.sflorg.com/2024/03/ns03262401.html
