Abstract: Abstract The cerebral commissures house the fibers that interconnect the two hemispheres of the brain. The main fiber tract, namely the corpus callosum, varies greatly in size in the human brain. Factors such as sex of the individual and chronological age affect its size. Relationships exist between callosal size, degree of functional asymmetry and cognitive ability. The callosum may play a crucial role in the experience of conscious unity.
