Biology:Homotopic connectivity

From HandWiki

In biology, homotopic connectivity is the connectivity between mirror areas of the human brain hemispheres.[1]

Changes in the homotopic connectivity are to disorders such as melancholic depression,[2] major depressive disorder,[3] schizophrenia[4] and cortical seizures.[5]
