Across species, multisensory integration (MSI) is used to accurately and rapidly localize objects in the environment. This process is presumed to rely on the correct organization of sensory inputs into topographically aligned maps of egocentric space. However this idea has not been rigorously tested. MSI and spatial orienting behaviors are compromised in many developmental disorders including Autism, Schizophrenia and ADHD, highlighting the significance of understanding the developmental mechanisms that establish effective MSI-dependent behaviors. The overall objective of this application is to determine the mechanisms used to integrate visual and auditory maps of location in the mouse…
