  This research project investigates synaesthesia, a fascinating perceptual phenomenon that involves the blending of different sensory experiences. Specifically, our focus lies on grapheme-colour synaesthesia, where specific letters and/or numbers elicit distinct and consistent colours in an individual’s perception. We seek to comprehend the underlying mechanisms governing these unique associations within the human brain by presenting participants with carefully designed colour stimuli and monitoring how their perception changes over time. This project not only aims to advance our understanding of synaesthesia but also to contribute significantly to the broader scientific understanding of human perception and neural processing. Unlocking the secrets of neural connectivity in neurotypical and neurodiverse brains will lead to significant progress in helping people recover faster after losing one of their senses and mitigating cognitive decline with ageing due to reduced neural connectivity.
