'Knowledge' is not a term I would use here, however, the two hemispheres are not identical, far from it! EEG and MRI prove that certain cortical regions of the cerebrum have very specific functions associated with one hemisphere or the other.

Split-brain patients (when the corpus callosum is cut in severe epilepsy to avoid the generation of mirror foci) for example are able to name an object only if it is presented in the visual field ipsilateral (on the same side) with the speech centers in the prefrontal and temporal cortex (usually the left side).
