sensory integration research

Sensory integration research studies how our brains combine information from different senses—like sight, sound, touch, and balance—to create a coordinated understanding of our environment. It explores how these sensory signals are processed, integrated, and used to guide actions and reactions. This research helps us understand typical sensory development, as well as challenges faced by individuals with conditions such as autism or sensory processing disorder. By uncovering how sensory information is managed, scientists aim to improve therapies, educational strategies, and interventions to support sensory integration and overall functioning.
