Multisensory integration describes a process by which information from different sensory
systems is combined to influence perception, decisions, and overt behavior. Despite a …

Highlights•Multisensory integration is observed in sensory cortices and higher cortical
areas.•Multisensory information could be integrated early and/or late in decision …

Multisensory integration research has allowed us to better understand how humans
integrate sensory information to produce a unitary experience of the external world …

The multisensory integration capabilities of superior colliculus neurons emerge gradually
during early postnatal life as a consequence of experience with cross-modal stimuli. Without …

Multisensory integration refers to the process by which the brain synthesizes information
from different senses to enhance sensitivity to external events. In the present experiments …

Our different senses provide complementary evidence about the environment and their
interaction often aids behavioral performance or alters the quality of the sensory percept. A …

It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

Incoming signals from different sensory modalities are initially processed in separate brain
regions. But because these different signals can arise from common events or objects in the …

Research into the anatomical substrates and" principles" for integrating inputs from separate
sensory surfaces has yielded divergent findings. This suggests that multisensory integration …

To form a coherent percept of the environment, our brain combines information from different
senses. Such multisensory integration occurs in higher association cortices; but supposedly …
