Project B4 - Brain dynamics of top-down control on crossmodal congruency

PIs: Prof. Dr. Xun Liu, Dr. Guido Nolte, Prof. Dr. Andreas K. Engel

The primary goal of project B4 is to investigate specific temporal and spatial neural mechanisms of top-down control over audiovisual congruency, integration and rule learning, utilizing behavioural, EEG, MEG and fMRI recordings. Specifically, the project aims to (1) examine how top-down executive control dynamically modulates multimodal conflict processing; (2) identify the role of top-down control in crossmodal information integration; and (3) explore how crossmodal perceptual priors influence top-down control of intrinsic rule learning.
