Most people enjoy listening to music, but what do we know about its effects on us? Music offers insights into brain development, cognition, behavior, emotion, creativity, and our perception of the world. In this scientific session, we will explore how the brain processes, perceives, and produces music, and how this understanding can be applied to everyday life and our ability to improvise.
