- Titre : Hearing lips in L2: Multisensory contributions to speech perception in bilinguals
- Abstract : Spoken communication provides a unique manifestation of human multisensory processing because speech correlates are available to the auditory and the visual systems. I am interested in addressing how these auditory and visual speech signals are integrated during perception, and in particular, how this multisensory processes take place when dealing with speech input in a second language. I will present evidence from several studies with adults and infants revealing the potential benefits of multisensory integration when perceiving speech in second languages. I will also present some findings about the potential neural correlates underlying these benefits.
