Definition
The main white matter structure connecting the left and right hemispheres of the brain, allowing interhemispheric communication; often used in the term 'corpus callosum.'
Etymology
From Latin 'corpus callosum' meaning 'hard body.' Medieval anatomists named it for its thick, white, cord-like appearance when they dissected brains.
Kelly Says
The corpus callosum contains roughly 200 million nerve fibers—if you could see them, it would look like a superhighway of information flowing between the brain's hemispheres, and each side talks to the other billions of times per day.
