Bilingualism is a skill that I can bring from childhood to adulthood. Few studies have been done on the brain structure of these people so far. In this article, with 56 resting state fMRI dataset including 28 subjects were native speakers of Mandarin Chinese living in the United States and the second 28 subjects were native speakers of Mandarin Chinese who lived in China, brain volume clusters were found for these people with p-FDR < 0.005 using the conn software. Each cluster compared to a known distribution of expected cluster sizes under the null hypothesis. at the end we got 8 cluster in compression group bilingual> control group.
