A neurologist, Prof (Dr) Philip Njemanze, has revealed where human intelligence is located in the brain.
He said this has been a subject of great debate for over 300 years.
He wrote “The year 2022 would be a year of Our Lord’s Wisdom, Health and Wealth for you. I have a great New Year gift for you. You will participate in the Great Scientific Debate on Intelligence that determines Human Civilization. The Great Question is: Where is Human Intelligence Located in the Brain? This has been a subject of the Great Debate for over 300 years. Two camps of scientists, one group says it is located in certain structures in the brain, the other said it is diffuse at several sites not in any one location in the brain.
“In 2005, we answered this 300 year question, demonstrating convincingly that, in Men general intelligence is located in the Right Hemisphere of the Brain, while in Women, general intelligence is located in the Left Hemisphere of the Brain.
[Njemanze PC. Cerebral lateralization and general intelligence: gender differences in a transcranial Doppler study. Brain Lang. 2005; 92: 234±239. Epub 2005/02/22. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bandl.2004.06.104 PMID: 15721956.]. This was truly revolutionary and one of the most important scientific findings of the 21st Century. Leading neuroscientists scrambled to almost immediately after they read it to confirm the findings. The first leading group of United States neuroscientists confirmed the findings in [Tranel D, Damasio H, Denburg NL, Bechara A. Does gender play a role in functional asymmetry of ventromedial prefrontal cortex? Brain. 2005; 128: 2872±2881. Epub 2005/10/01. https://doi.org/10.1093/brain/awh643 PMID: 16195242.] Followed almost immediately by a second group of US neuroscientists [Jung RE, Haier RJ, Yeo RA, Rowland LM, Petropoulos H, Levine AS, et al. Sex differences in N-acetylaspartate correlates of general intelligence: an 1H-MRS study of normal human brain. Neuroimage. 2005; 26: 965±972. Epub 2005/06/16.
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2005.02.039 PMID: 15955507.] This discovery assumes even greater importance as the New Debate now has been framed by those pursuing the goal of a Genderless World, which we have shown lacks all rational scientific bases. We invite you to join this Great Debate on the Brain of the Sexes. May God Bless you and Happy New Year. Academician (Dr) Philip C. Njemanze MD. (Hons).
