Several of us met on Labor Day with the goal of identifying topics for at least five future monthly meetings. (Thanks, Dave N, for hosting!) Being the overachievers we are, we pushed beyond the goal. Following are the resulting topics, which will each have its own article on this site where we can begin organizing references for the discussion:
sex-related influences on emotional memory
gross and subtle brain differences (e.g., “walls of the third ventricle – sexual nuclei”)
“Are there gender-based brain differences that influence differences in perceptions and experience?”
epigenetic factors (may need an overview of epigenetics)
If I missed anything, please edit the list (I used HTML in the ‘Text’ view to get sub-bullets). If you’re worried about the formatting, you can email your edits to cogniphile@albuquirky.net and Mark will post your changes.
