We find that the inferior colliculus, a primarily auditory brain area, displays distinct population-level responses to visual stimuli. We also find that visual cues can influence the auditory responses of individual neurons. Together, the results provide insight into how relatively early sensory areas may play a role in combining multiple sensory modalities to refine the perception of complex environments.
