Past projects

Attention and multisensory integration

Attentional constraints on the extraction of structure from speech

AYOP: At your own pace
Would we react to relevant events more efficiently? Would we learn new things more easily? We aim at answering these questions based on principle knowledge on neural dynamics. ‘At Your Own Pace’ (AYOP) proposes to stream neural oscillations,...

Cross-modal attention in neurological patients

From Lab to Life: The impact of multisensory integration phenomena in everyday life
Plenty of studies, some of them exceptionally elegant, have come to reveal of that cross-modal interactions can render important benefits, produce interference or, even give rise to some dramatic perceptual illusions. But...What is the actual...

Levels of processing in Auditory-visual integration

MNEURONIC: A Mnemonic System based on Stimulation-free Neuroimaging
This project’s aim is the commercialization of a neurotechnology device, MNeuronic, that helps its users to improve their memory retention. MNeuronic can be used in cognitive rehabilitation on patients with mild to moderate decline in memory...

Multisensory contributions to motion perception

Multisensory contributions to speech perception

PreMSI: Predicting Multisensory Interactions from Pre-Stimulus Activity
PreMSI pursues to capitalize on ongoing brain activity before stimulus appearance (i.e., Pre-Stimulus), to forecast perceptual outcome multisensory interactions (MSI). The framework is based on empirical findings and theoretical developments in...

Selecting and binding cross-modal information in time

Sensory-motor interactions in action execution

The interplay between attention and multisensory perception
Nearly every aspect of our everyday life perception involves integrating information from different sensory modalities, such as when localizing the origin of events from sight, ear and touch, maintaining a coherent image of our own body through...
