The paper investigates whether neurons in the macaque posterior parietal cortex encode self-motion speed and finds that a fraction of neurons do so linearly, supporting path integration.

The paper confirms direct, nonreciprocal auditory projections to V1 in marmoset monkeys, supporting early audiovisual integration in primates.

This study investigates how the perceived timing of active head movement relates to its speed, finding that faster movements are perceived as occurring more quickly, though still with a delay.

The paper investigates how individual differences in temporal processing affect multisensory perception by measuring the impact of audiovisual correlation strength.

The paper shows that group differences in the McGurk effect are inflated due to high within-group variability and small sample sizes, leading to unreliable conclusions.

The paper investigates how irrelevant auditory sequences influence visual temporal processing by modulating perceived motion in Ternus displays, revealing a crossmodal averaging principle based on geometric mean and Bayesian integration.

This study identifies the right posterior superior temporal sulcus as a site of multisensory integration for emotional expressions from faces and voices.

The paper shows that temporal interval encoding in auditory and visual modalities shares a common neural representation, despite differences in accuracy between modalities.

The paper identifies two distinct computational mechanisms in different brain regions that support audiovisual speech comprehension: redundancy in the left posterior superior temporal gyrus and synergy in the left motor cortex.

The paper compares Bayesian and non-Bayesian causal inference strategies in multisensory heading perception using computational modeling and behavioral experiments.

This study investigates whether auditory motion modulates spiking activity in visual motion areas of the primate brain and finds no such modulation at the single neuron level.

The paper shows how sensory reliability modulates premotor neuron firing rates to adjust sound localization behavior in barn owls.

This study uses intracranial EEG to show that peripersonal space processing around the trunk in humans involves multisensory integration and spatial modulation in specific brain regions.

The paper compares performance in relative localisation tasks using auditory, visual, and auditory-visual stimuli, finding that multisensory stimuli improve performance across all locations.

The paper decodes scene categories from brain activity across visual and auditory modalities, showing prefrontal cortex represents these categories in a modality-independent manner.

The paper identifies a sharp functional boundary in the superior temporal gyrus using ECOG and fMRI, showing distinct roles for anterior and posterior regions in unisensory and multisensory speech processing.

The paper investigates how spatial attention and expectation affect perceptual decisions, finding additive or interactive effects depending on experimental conditions.

The paper shows that visual cortex entrains more to forward than backward unheard acoustic speech envelopes during silent lip movements, indicating visuo-phonological mapping and top-down modulation.

This study investigates structural brain differences in synesthetes using MRI and finds no significant anomalies supporting synesthetic color experiences.

This study assesses causal inference in verticality perception using an Alternative-Reality system, finding mixed support for Bayesian fusion and other models.

The paper investigates how the brain encodes uncertainty across sensory modalities and non-monotonically, using multivariate pattern analysis on auditory, visual, and audiovisual stimuli.

The paper shows that selective attention enhances functional coupling between somatosensory and auditory cortical systems during frequency perception.

The paper quantifies how the S cell in the medicinal leech responds to visual and mechanical water wave cues, finding frequency-dependent sensitivity and no directional selectivity.

The paper shows that visual signals enhance auditory cortex representations when temporally coherent with sound, supporting multisensory binding for auditory scene analysis.

The paper shows that eardrums move with eye movements in humans and monkeys, creating oscillations unrelated to sound, which may help the brain integrate visual and auditory information.

The paper shows infants detect crossmodal statistics better than adults, who only do so when task-relevant.

This study shows that neural responses to audio-visual integration are modulated by sensory reliability early (84ms) and perceptual weights later (120ms) after stimulus onset.

The paper provides evidence for domain-generality in human metacognition through behavioral, modeling, and electrophysiological analyses across multiple sensory tasks.

This study investigates how spatial attention and audio-visual synchrony independently enhance early visual processing through distinct neural mechanisms using frequency-tagging.

This study investigates how visual gaze direction affects auditory attention and finds that misalignment between gaze and auditory attention increases response times and alters neural activity in specific brain regions.
