Dr. Marianne Leagato and her colleagues have produced many books explaining the differences between male and female physiology and why biological sex is so important.
In 2018, she was honored with a PROSE Award from the Association of American Publishers for the best book on clinical medicine for Principles of Gender-Specific Medicine: Gender in the Genomic Era (Third Edition). Her book, The Plasticity of Sex: The Molecular Biology and Clinical Features of Genomic Sex, Gender Identity, and Sexual Behavior, won a PROSE Award in the Biomedicine category in 2021. In recognition of her work on the differences between men and women, Legato was granted an honorary PhD from the University of Panama in 2015.
