In this Introduction, we have the pleasure of introducing the twelve articles of this Special Issue of Multisensory Research celebrating the life and works of Vincent Hayward. Vincent was a prolific scientist, collaborator, and colleague. As you will see by the variety of contributed papers, his influence spanned several fields and topics; from engineering to neurophysiology; from skin mechanics to olfactory metacognition. We and many others had the pleasure of knowing and working with Vincent. His boundless curiosity shines through in the papers of this Special Issue, and hopefully in our Introduction as well. Though gone, he is not forgotten; His legacy and influence lives on in the hearts and minds of colleagues studying the (neuro)science of body perception.
