Whether and how anatomically distinct regions of the superior colliculus (SC) exhibit specialisation in multisensory temporal integration to facilitate different behavioural responses are not fully understood. This study shows that nonlinear integration in the SC enhances temporal encoding of multisensory signals, varies across the sensory field, and is supported by specialized intracollicular subnetworks.
