Identification of a network of brain regions involved in mathematics

Scientists have just revealed that the brain has a network of brain regions involved in advanced mathematics, as well as simpler arithmetic operations. This network is only activated when numbers are seen, in a population of high-level university students including both experts in mathematics and non-mathematicians. These results were obtained using functional MRI on university students specializing in mathematics and other disciplines.

Which leads to the question which has a bigger brain volume, that to do with sex, or mathematics?

The MRI Scan observations identifies brain regions, not size.
