    This looks like a fascinating institute – do you know of similar resources for vision? Or perhaps investigations into an integration or crossover between the senses of smell, touch, sound and vision?

    I’ve just posted a long film clip of a presentation about what fMRI can teach us about the visual cortex.

    There’s a condition called synthaesthesia in which inputs from one sensory modality evoke sensations in another. According to recent research, it’s more common than was previously thought. I think the condition is an active area of research. Try searching the web - I just typed the word into Google and got 725,000 results.
