Network science encompasses the study of the human brain and can lead to fundamental insights into the organization of the healthy and diseased brain, while incorporating knowledge of elementary system components as well as the interactions between them and their emerging properties. In this study, we propose a different way of analysing functional brain networks based on functional MRI data of 100 subjects from the Human Connectome Project (http://www.humanconnectome.org) and attempt to identify the differences between the two genders, since sex has demonstrated a substantial influence on many areas of brain and behavior.
