Reprint of 'Structural and functional correlates of epileptogenesis — Does gender matter?'

In the majority of neuropsychiatric conditions, marked gender-based differences have been found in the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and therapy of disease. One possible reason is that sex differences in cerebral morphology, structural and functional connections, render men and women differ...
