"I AM NOT MY CHROMOSOMES" - THE SCIENCE OF SEX DIFFERENCES
Location
Science Gallery
About
Are they a girl or a boy?" That question is often asked of expecting parents almost out of habit.
But biology is far more complicated and more interesting.
Some of us are born with variations in sexual development, also known as intersex conditions.
Join a powerful, compassionate, and open dialogue between trailblazers - scientists, people with lived experience, clinicians, and more.
Untangle the confusing maze of sex, hormones, biology, medicine, and the law ... to explore our evolving understanding of sex differences.
Hosted by Natasha Mitchell, presenter of ABC Radio National's Big Ideas program and podcast
