The corpus callosum in primates: processing speed of axons and the evolution of hemispheric asymmetry

Interhemispheric communication may be constrained as brain size increases because of transmission delays in action potentials over the length of axons. Although one might expect larger brains to have progressively thicker axons to compensate, spatial packing is a limiting factor. Axon size distribut...
