abstract = {The rapid demographical shift occurring in our society
implies that understanding of healthy aging and age-related
diseases is one of our major future challenges. Sensory
impairments have an enormous impact on our lives and are
closely linked to cognitive functioning. Due to the inherent
complexity of sensory perceptions, we are commonly presented
with a complex multisensory stimulation and the brain
integrates the information from the individual sensory
channels into a unique and holistic percept. The cerebral
processes involved are essential for our perception of
sensory stimuli and becomes especially important during the
perception of emotional content. Despite ongoing
deterioration of the individual sensory systems during
aging, there is evidence for an increase in, or maintenance
of, multisensory integration processing in aging
individuals. Within this comprehensive literature review on
multisensory integration we aim to highlight basic
mechanisms and potential compensatory strategies the human
brain utilizes to help maintain multisensory integration
capabilities during healthy aging to facilitate a broader
understanding of age-related pathological conditions.
Further our goal was to identify where further research is
