Research Group Multisensory Integration

Welcome to our website!

Our research focuses on:

👁️✋👂 Multisensory processing and perception
Studying how the brain synthesizes the senses to construct reality.

🧠 Cognitive Control
Uncovering the neural blueprints of attention and memory.

⚕️ Clinical Insights
Bridging the gap between neural circuit dysfunction and mental health.

We integrate multimodal neuroimaging (EEG, MEG, MRI) with computational modeling to decode neural processing. Recently, we proposed that neural timescale dynamics drive multisensory integration (Senkowski & Engel, 2024, Nat Rev Neurosci).

🤝 Interested in collaborating? We welcome academic and industry researchers, fellowship applicants, thesis students, and visitors.
