Let me check something real quick:
Which operating system do you primarily use at home?

Today on Assigned:

Maybe you've heard that trans people have brains more similar to cis people of their post-transition gender?

Maybe you've wondered what brain scans of trans people on hormones reveal about the ways hormones impact our brains?

WE HAVE AN ARTICLE FOR YOU!

Take is a close look at what the science says- and doesn't say- about the brains of trans people.
