The brain is divided into the right and left hemispheres, and the corpus callosum connects the two halves. This bundle of nerve tissue contains more than 200 million axons (nerve fibers that carry ...

A study by the HSE Centre for Language and Brain has confirmed the role of the corpus callosum in language lateralisation, ie the distribution of language processing functions between the brain's ...

The largest pathway of interactivity in the brain is the corpus callosum, the very large connective pathway between the right and left cerebral hemispheres. This talk will focus on research into the ...

Structural and functional brain rewiring clarifies preserved interhemispheric transfer in humans born without the corpus callosum. PNAS , May 12, 2014 DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1400806111 Cite This Page : ...

When the corpus callosum works well, the human brain is a marvel of social, spatial and verbal reasoning. When it malfunctions — as it appears to do in autism, ...

The human brain can often be divided into three distinct parts, which include the cerebrum, the cerebellum, and the brainstem. ... are joined together by the corpus callosum.

In the new study, researchers combined diffusion MRI data from the Human Connectome Project with histological cross-sections of the corpus callosum, the major tract that connects the left and ...

When the corpus callosum works well, the human brain is a marvel of social, spatial and verbal reasoning. When it malfunctions, as it appears to do in autism, fetal alcohol syndrome, certain ...

One in 4,000 people is born without a corpus callosum, a brain structure consisting of neural fibers that are used to transfer information from one hemisphere to the other.

In the absence of the corpus callosum, certain fibers designed to serve as a bridge between the hemispheres, known as Probst bundles, bypass the absent brain area and curl up inside each hemisphere.
