At the single neuron level, responses are more robust to spatiotemporally concordant modality-specific sensory cues (likely derived from the same event) than to either cue alone – an effect that is strongest when the cues are weakest. This multisensory enhancement effect increases event detectability and the likelihood of adaptive responses. Spatially discordant cues are either not integrated, or are integrated to yield depression. en Wake Forest University Anterior ectosylvian sulcus Cross-modal Multisensory integration neural network stimulus onset asynchrony Superior Colliculus UNDERSTANDING THE PROCESS OF MULTISENSORY INTEGRATION Dissertation Stein, Barry E Stein, Barry E Rowland, Benjamin A Peiffer, Ann M Perrault, Thomas J Salinas, Emilio Stanford, Terrence R Neurobiology & Anatomy open.access
