Multisensory Research Group

Multisensory Research Group

Approach

To study multisensory interactions in a wide range of perceptual domains (from speech perception to body representation), using a variety of scientific approaches (from psychophysics to neuroimaging). The questions we address focus on basic as well as on applied problems.

Aim

To understand the neural and cognitive basis of human perception and attention processes in multisensory environments. That is, how our brain organizes, represents, and selects the information that arrives from the different sensory modalities (audition, somatosensation, vision, olfaction, etc).

Funding

Our research projects are funded by public and private sources, including Unilever Research Ltd., Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia (MEC), Departament d' Universitats, Recerca i Societat de la Informació (DURSI), and the 6th Framework Programme (EU).
