The brain of Albert Einstein has been a subject of much research and speculation. Albert Einstein 's brain was removed within seven and a half hours of his death. His apparent regularities or irregularities in the brain have been used to support various ideas about correlations in neuroanatomy with general or mathematical intelligence.
Damage to the left Brodmann area 39 may result in dyslexia or in semantic aphasia. [1] Albert Einstein had less neurones (relative to glial cells) in this (left sided) area than normal. [1] The right Brodmann area 39 appears to play a role in body image because electrical stimulation of the right angular gyrus induces an 'out-of-body ...
Albert Einstein (/ ˈ aɪ n s t aɪ n /, EYEN-styne; [4] German: [ˈalbɛʁt ˈʔaɪnʃtaɪn] ⓘ; 14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955) was a German-born theoretical physicist who is best known for developing the theory of relativity. Einstein also made important contributions to quantum mechanics.

Dr. Harvey sectioned the preserved brain into 170 pieces [2] in a lab at the University of Pennsylvania, a process that took three full months to complete.
