I completed my degree in Neurobiology at UC Berkeley, graduated from Yale School of Medicine, and did my internship and residency at Harvard Medical School. I also served on both the faculties of Harvard University and University of California at San Francisco. I founded the Women’s Mood and Hormone Clinic at UCSF. My New York Times bestseller, The Female Brain, and its follow-up, The Male Brain, continue to be read around the world. My new book, The Upgrade: How the Female Brain Gets Stronger and Better in Midlife and Beyond, is due out April 2022.
