Another excellent piece of work by the talented @claraalamedaj.bsky.social

It brings together behavioural results and canonical ERP markers with computational modelling and advanced multivariate EEG analyses to revisit a classic effect in multisensory integration!
🚨 New preprint 🚨

Multisensory integration is often described as basic, robust, even ✨“cognitively impenetrable” ✨

But does the brain still bind the senses when alertness drops? 😴🧠

Two years ago, I had an idea, one that evolved over time as I kept reading and learning. Today, a major first part of that idea has just become my first PhD preprint, now publicly available on PsyArxiv.

Let me tell you a bit more about the story behind it... while I prepare the submission.
