Split Brain

Here's a fascinating video featuring split-brain researcher Michael Gazzaniga. The patient had his corpus callosum severed as a treatment for severe epilepsy. The treatment terminated nearly all communication between his brain's right and left hemispheres.

Really interesting video. Helpful to understand the need for the corpus callosum and the effects of a severed corpus callosum however the music is EXTREMELY distracting!!!

The ridiculous and inappropriate music totally detracts from what is being said. So 1 star.

Well, you could probably convince me that it is some sort of psychological experience were you divide my attention and see how well I can recall the information afterwards.
