Mankind's utter dependency on technology extends back approximately three million years
to the first stone tools, but it was only with the innovation of hafting, some 300,000 years ago …

The ability of animals to detect motion is critical for survival, and errors or even delays in
motion perception may prove costly. In the natural world, moving objects in the visual field …

Background The popular theory that complex tool-making and language co-evolved in the
human lineage rests on the hypothesis that both skills share underlying brain processes and …

Although it is known that sounds can affect visual perception, the neural correlates for
crossmodal interactions are still disputed. Previous tracer studies in non-human primates …

While future imagination is largely considered to be a cognitive process grounded in default
mode network activity, studies have shown that future imagination recruits regions in both …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed that the superior temporal and
occipital cortex are involved in multisensory integration. Probabilistic fiber tracking based on …

The superior temporal sulcus (STS) and gyrus (STG) are commonly identified to be
functionally relevant for multisensory integration of audiovisual (AV) stimuli. However, most …

The integration of information from different sensory modalities is a fundamental process that
enhances perception and performance in real and virtual environments (VR). Understanding …

Although there is an extensive literature on the study of the neural correlates of
consciousness (NCC) this is a subject that is far from being considered over. In this paper …

Hearing synchronous sounds may facilitate the visual search for the concurrently changed
visual targets. Evidence for this audiovisual attentional facilitation effect mainly comes from …
