Corpus Callosum

The corpus callosum is a thick band of nerve fibers that divides the cerebrum into left and right hemispheres, which allows communication between both hemispheres. It transfers sensory, cognitive, and motor information. The corpus callosum is located underneath the cerebrum at the center of the brain. It is involved in several functions of the body including eye movement, maintaining attention span, and tactile localization.
