About the IMRF:
   The International Multisensory Research Forum (IMRF) fosters 
research in areas where more than one sensory modality play a role. 
Our interests include, but are not limited to, mathematical 
psychology, psychophysics, neurophysiology and anatomy, development, 
neuroimaging, and application development. The 2011 IMRF conference 
in Sendai will follow the structure of our successful previous 
meetings. We will offer a single stream of oral presentations, either 
in structured symposia or as conference submission presentations, and 
poster presentations. Authors will have the opportunity to submit 
their work to a special edition on multisensory processing in 
iPerception that is scheduled to appear in 2012.

Symposia:
   We have scheduled six themed symposia on:
1. The adaptation of multisensory time
2. Multi-sensory integration, Sensory substitution technology and 
Visual rehabilitation
3. Audiovisual interaction: How early does it occur?
4. Effects of proprioceptive and vestibular processing on visual perception
5. Multisensory integration from neurons to behavior: bridging the 
gap via computational models
6. The influences of Multisensory Integration and Attention on Each Other
