Pew Funds 10 Latin American Scientists Conducting Critical Biomedical Research

U-M scientist named Pew Scholar

E. Josephine Clowney E. Josephine Clowney, an assistant professor in the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, will focus on unraveling how female and male brain development are programmed to allow sex-specific behaviors. Much of the brain is identical between the sexes. The part of the brain that governs innate or hardwired tasks, such as breathing or walking, is identical between male and female organisms. But specific parts of the brain between 2% and 5% used for specific social tasks differ between the two sexes. “We don’t have a global view of how the brain is set up: Do you start with everything, and then take pieces away, or do you start with only things common to two sexes, and add on things for males and add things for females?” Clowney said. “The hypothesis we’re trying to test is that brain masculinization results from dismantling female characteristics.”
