It is one of the most important methodological contributions in modern biochemistry. The final mentioned is a foundational text on split-brain research, demonstrating the functional specialization of the cerebral hemispheres and their relative independence. The findings of this paper transformed the understanding of cognition and consciousness and contributed to Roger Wolcott Sperry's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1981, as he was one of the contributors of this paper.
