Inside
the Female Brain - Louann Brizandine
Speaker: Dr.
Louann Brizendine - Director of the Women's & Teen Girl's
Mood & Hormone Clinic, UCSF and Author of The Female
Brain. With over two decades of unique brain-body
research, Dr. Brizendine explores the age old question "why do
women think so differently from men"? As a medical student and
resident, Dr. Brizendine discovered that almost all neurology,
psychology, and neurobiology data focused exclusively on men.
In response she established the first clinic in the country to
study and treat women's brain functions. Learn the scientific
reasoning why women and men think, communicate, and fall in
love differently. For more information, please contact Trish
Newfarmer at (408) 351-3477.
