It has recently been demonstrated that the maturation of normal multisensory circuits in the
cortex of the cat takes place over an extended period of postnatal life. Such a finding …

We perceive and understand our environment using many sensory systems-vision, touch,
hearing, taste, smell, and proprioception. These multiple sensory modalities not only give us …

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 …

The richness of perceptual experience, as well as its usefulness for guiding behaviour,
depends on the synthesis of information across multiple senses. Recent decades have …

Recent studies using modern functional imaging methods have provided insights into the
brain areas involved in combining information across the senses, and the manner in which …

Although sensory perception and neurobiology are traditionally investigated one modality at
a time, real world behaviour and perception are driven by the integration of information from …

Because of its importance in forming an appropriate picture of the external world, the
representation of sensory information has been a powerful driving force in EVOLUTION …

Most auditory events in nature are accompanied by non-auditory signals, such as a view of
the speaker's face during face-to-face communication or the vibration of a string during a …

Previous studies have shown that adults respond faster and more reliably to bimodal
compared to unimodal localization cues. The current study investigated for the first time the …

There is now a good deal of data from neurophysiological studies in animals and behavioral
studies in human infants regarding the development of multisensory processing capabilities …
