This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. Graphical_Abstract Combining extracellular recordings in vivo and anatomical investigations in pre‐juvenile rats, the authors show that the processing of visual‐tactile information and the underlying direct connectivity between the primary sensory cortices emerge before and to a large extent independently of cross‐modal experience.
