The event will be hosted by the Centre for Music and Science (University of Cambridge) and the Music, Mind and Brain group (Goldsmiths College, University of London), targeting the broad community of postgraduate and early career researchers (PGRs/ECRs) in the fields of music psychology and music education.
In addition to paper and poster presentations from PGRs and ECRs, Dr Marcus Pearce (Queen Mary University of London) will deliver a keynote presentation.
