Example sentences

The results establish that male brains are optimized for intrahemispheric and female brains for interhemispheric communication.

The Corpus Callosum isn't the only interhemispheric commissure though, there are several more.

This size difference accounts for other reproducible findings: higher white/gray matter ratio, intra- versus interhemispheric connectivity, and regional cortical and subcortical volumes in males.

I'm inclined to believe their results were due to: 1) The corpus callosum is the dominant interhemispheric tract, but not the only one.

Although the corpus callosum is the largest white matter tract connecting the hemispheres, some limited interhemispheric communication is still possible via the anterior commissure and posterior commissure.

In reality, there are other interhemispheric connections.
