When auditory and visual cues both indicate a stimulus position, mice integrate these cues linearly (Coen et al., Neuron 2023). This strategy is optimal if the cues are independent and informative. What happens if the reward structure is changed to make this strategy suboptimal? Do mice continue to act additively, and do they learn to use the informative interactions between cues?Mice were trained to indicate the left-or-right position of audiovisual cues — which were presented alone (unisensory trials), simultaneously in the same location (coherent trials) or simultaneously in opposite locati
