What happens when our brain receives different sensory signals at the same time? Our brain is constantly processing signals: we see, hear, feel, and maintain our balance. But how does it know which signals belong together—and which do not?
In this webinar, with speaker Dr. Marc van Wanrooij, we explore the fascinating world of multisensory integration: the process by which our brain combines sensory information to better understand the world around us.
We will discuss, among other things:
- How integration makes our perception faster, more accurate, and more stable
- What happens when signals are not properly aligned
- Why this process can be more complex in cases of hearing loss, tinnitus, sensory overload, or when using a cochlear implant
- The possible link with (hyper)sensitivity and overstimulation
