Association fibers are axons that connect cortical areas within the same cerebral hemisphere.
In human neuroanatomy, axons within the brain, can be categorized on the basis of their course and connections as association fibers, projection fibers, and commissural fibers.
The association fibers unite different parts of the same cerebral hemisphere, and are of two kinds: short association fibers that connect adjacent gyri; long association fibers that make connections between more distant parts.
