This study investigates brain dynamics during natural vision and audition by analyzing information flow between brain regions in sighted, blind, and deaf participants, revealing how distributed processing supports perception.

This study shows that intrinsic cortical hierarchies constrain experience-dependent plasticity in sensory-deprived humans, preserving functional gradients while allowing adaptive reorganization.

The paper investigates how the brain encodes affect using sensory-specific or abstract codes by analyzing brain activity in blind, deaf, and typically-developed participants during movie viewing.

This study shows that the human superior temporal cortex synchronizes across auditory and visual conditions even in individuals without audiovisual experience, suggesting a modality-independent organization for multisensory processing.

The paper examines how brain network connectivity dynamics track affective changes during movie watching across multiple timescales.
