How do we synchronize to the rhythms of music? My research explores the neural mechanisms that transform auditory rhythms into predictable periodicities, which allows people to synchronize with music and enjoy it. Using electroencephalography and motor synchronization, our interdisciplinary projects explore how the brain makes sense of rhythms and how this varies in healthy and clinical populations.
I inspire my students with problem-solving activities that require hands on learning and personal reflection. I teach in the PHD course "Introduction to Matlab" and the biennial "Music Neuroscience Summerschool". I have taught some guest lectures about music neuroscience in Humanities and Cognitive science fields, and I supervised several bachelor and master projects.
I recently collaborated with colleagues in the fields of Linguistics, Psychology and Comparative cognition from the Univeristy of Barcelona, Medical University of Gdańsk, University of Vienna, Western University and University Pompeu Fabra.
