What did they do with Albert Einstein's brain?

Answer 1

Yes, the brain of physicist Albert Einstein has been a subject of much research and speculation. It was removed within seven and a half hour of his death. The brain has attracted attention because of Einstein's reputation of being one of the foremost geniuses of the 20th century, and apparent regularities or irregularities in the brain have been used to support various ideas about correlations in neuroanatomy with general or mathematical intelligence. Scientific studies have suggested that regions involved in speech and language or smaller, while regions involved with numeral and spatial processing are larger.

Answer 2

After Albert Einstein's death, his brain was removed during his autopsy without his family's permission. It was then sliced into sections for research purposes to try to understand the anatomical basis of his remarkable intelligence. Some studies suggested that his brain had slightly different proportions in certain areas compared to the average brain.

Answer 3

Weighed it, photographed it, cut it into 1 cm3 cubes, and preserved it in alcohol.
