Scientists have puzzled over how different senses work together when animals are on the hunt for food. New research from the laboratory of CSHL neuroscientist and Assistant Professor Adam Kepecs shows that when rats actively use the senses of smell (sniffing) and touch (through their whiskers) those two processes are locked in synchronicity.

Rats Have Ability to Store High-Speed Multisensory Snapshots
Scientists have puzzled over how different senses work together when animals are on the hunt for food. New research from the laboratory of CSHL neuroscientist and Assistant Professor Adam Kepecs shows that when rats actively use the senses of smell (sniffing) and touch (through their whiskers) those two processes are locked in synchronicity.
