Yes, they are different....

Not only is the male brain different than the female brain, but each person's brain it in itself unique. These differences have much to do with experience, which seems to forge the connections between the neurons through neuroglial growth and development.
In general our neurons do not grow, divide, or regenerate much, if at all, after childhood. While this makes neuronal damage difficult to repair, it is also the basis of our ability to maintain memory and personality over time. And research has shown that functional damage can be "healed" by a rearrangement of the connection through those wonderful neuroglial cells. Be grateful to your brain today!
