Welcome to the Music, Acoustics, Perception and LEarning lab.  We are housed within the School of the Arts at Master University, and affiliated with the McMaster Institute for Music and the Mind.  Our lab is dedicated to examining the psychological basis of the musical experience, with research projects exploring the role of visual information in music, musical timbre, the communication of affect in language and music, and general questions surrounding music perception and cognition.  Additionally, we actively conduct research on sensory integration, auditory learning and memory, and the perception of timbre.  We are currently involved in research collaborations with Jeanine Stefannuci (University of Utah), and music cognition expert David Huron (Ohio State University).
