Pleased to receive the MIT IBK Research Award for my project titled: “Sound(e)scape: Enhancing well-being through immersive unconventional acoustic experiences”

Dr. Alaa Algargoosh, a postdoctoral fellow in the Media Lab's Affective Computing research group, has received an MIT IBK Research Award. Her research explores how acoustic environments can elicit positive emotions. media.mit.edu/posts/alaa-alg…

I am proud of the work that Hector Astrom, JeeWoo Kang, and Susan Hong achieved during the Independent Activity Period (IAP) at the MIT Media Lab. These excellent students enriched the Sound(e)scape project with their ideas, critical questions, and analytical skills.
