What Bridges the Two Halves of Your Brain?

The corpus callosum is a major white-matter connection between the cerebral hemispheres. Its axons cross the midline and spread into both sides; its curved outline in a side section does not show every fiber’s direction.

A coronal brain section highlights ivory fibers crossing above blue lateral ventricles; a smaller midline side view shows the curved callosal profile.

What the illustration shows

Navy and gold anatomy poster titled What Bridges the Two Halves of Your Brain? A large front-facing coronal cerebral section shows ivory fibers crossing between light-peach hemispheres above two blue lateral ventricles. Labels identify midline, corpus callosum, crossing axons and ventricles. A smaller midline side section shows the curved callosal profile with anterior and posterior orientation. Text distinguishes the side profile from fiber direction. Gold AllHumanBody.com and the full project slogan appear below.
