This study examines how spatial proximity, attentional focus, and anticipated action outcomes influence motor preparation and action awareness using EEG and virtual reality.

This study uses Bayesian computational modeling to show that prior expectations guide multisensory integration during face-to-face communication, with stronger integration when signals convey congruent communicative intent.

This study examines how face masks affect neural tracking of speech by comparing auditory and visual obstacles in three conditions: no-mask, virtual mask, and real mask.

This study examines neural speech tracking in children with cochlear implants, finding resilience in early auditory processing but vulnerability in higher-level speech processing.

The paper introduces SPHERE, a method for 3D sound localization that integrates virtual reality, real-time tracking, and active listening to study spatial hearing and its applications.

This study investigates spatial hearing re-learning using virtual reality, finding that active reaching improves sound localisation more than naming, with head movements playing a key role in this improvement.

The paper shows that early deaf individuals exhibit enhanced face processing in the auditory cortex, which typically handles voice processing in hearing people.
