Whether or not multisensory interactions can improve detection thresholds, and thus widen the range of perceptible events is a long-standing debate. Here we revisit this question, by testing the influence...

While source localization methods are increasingly developed to identify brain areas underlying scalp electro/magnetoencephalographic data (EEG/MEG), these methods have not yet been used to identify the sources of intracerebral signals...

Event related potentials (ERPs) were recorded from subjects who had to perform either an identification task or a simple detection task on moving visual stimuli. Results showed that the amplitude...

We describe documented simultaneous intracerebral auditory evoked potentials from the auditory cortex and medial geniculate body (MGB) of a human patient. The MGB response lasted > 300 ms, with an...

Very recently, a number of neuroimaging studies in humans have begun to investigate the question of how the brain integrates information from different sensory modalities to form unified percepts. Already,...

A common finding of behavioral studies is that objects characterized by redundant multisensory cues are identified more rapidly than the same objects presented in either unimodal condition. In a previous...
