Summary

This study looked at how the brain processes faces and voices together when deciding if someone is male or female. Thirty-eight healthy adults had their brains scanned with fMRI while doing a gender classification task. The goal was to understand which brain areas handle visual and auditory gender cues, and how they work together.
