[MURG] Corpus callosum bandwidth

[digfarenough]

I'd always thought the corpus callosum is just axons
extending from various parts of the neocortex.
Therefore, I would think that the coding in each fiber
reflects the coding of whatever area the soma of that
cell lies in. E.g., an axon from primary somatosensory
cortex going through the corpus callosum would using
whatever coding primary somatosensory cortex uses,
while one going through from an association area would
use whatever sort of coding the association area uses.

Is that not what you're asking?

I'm also curious as to why you ask.
