It has been nearly 10 years since Ghazanfar and Schroeder (2006) proposed that the
neocortex is essentially multisensory in nature. However, it is only recently that sufficient and …

By using meaningful stimuli, multisensory research has recently started to investigate the
impact of stimulus content on crossmodal integration. Variations in this respect have often …

A hallmark of electrophysiological brain activity is its 1/f-like spectrum–power decreases with
increasing frequency. The steepness of this 'roll-off'is approximated by the spectral …

A major determinant of multisensory integration, derived from single-neuron studies in
animals, is the principle of inverse effectiveness (IE), which describes the phenomenon …

An important step in perceptual processing is the integration of information from different
sensory modalities into a coherent percept. It has been suggested that such crossmodal …

The neural activity of speech sound processing (the N1 component of the auditory ERP) can
be suppressed if a speech sound is accompanied by concordant lip movements. Here we …

Nowadays there is the hope that neuroscientific findings will contribute to the improvement
of building design in order to create environments which satisfy man's demands. This can be …

The segregation between cortical pathways for the identification and localization of objects
is thought of as a general organizational principle in the brain. Yet, little is known about the …

Every day we make attributions about how our actions and the actions of others cause
consequences in the world around us. It is unknown whether we use the same implicit …

In this review, we examine the contribution of human electrophysiological studies (EEG,
sEEG and MEG) to the study of visual influence on processing in the auditory cortex …
