Resumen:While integration of multimodal sensory stimuli in cortical hierarchies is well studied, the functional impact of hetero-modal inputs on visual perception is less explored. Here we use a visual classification task in rats to investigate how task-irrelevant sounds modify visual processing. Sound intensity, but not temporal congruency with visual stimuli, effectively compresses the task's visual perceptual space, suggesting inhibition as a mediator of auditory-visual interactions in neural representations.Competing Interest StatementThe authors have declared no competing interest.
