With only two days left until #Neuromusic8, we are seeing beautiful, clear skies and reaching not 10 but 15 C in Helsinki. ☀️🥵Of course, our welcomes shall be even warmer than the Finnish summer! youtube.com/watch?v=sd2nh_…

The series of #Neuromusic8 live music performances was opened with guitar blues by Russ Palmer. Introducing himself as a deafblind songwriter and musician, Palmer also shared his experiences about using cochlear implants to perceive and make music. russpalmer.com

Cochlear implant expert Medicine and Health, University of Helsinki Ritva Torppa offered a taster of music play school for children who use cochlear implants. The University of Helsinki Great hall was filled with cheerful faces as the international #Neuromusic8 audience was asked to stand up and sing IN FINNISH 🇫🇮🎼

Day 2 of #Neuromusic8 opening in sunny Helsinki. Looking forward to today’s three symposia, not to forget Dr Daisy Fancourt ’s keynote lecture on the health benefits of arts and cultural engagement!

#Neuromusic8 organisers Mari Tervaniemi Faculty of Educational Sciences, Univ. of Helsinki and Teppo Särkämö Medicine and Health, University of Helsinki are enjoying the day at least as much as the 500 participants! Now, time for some coffee 😌☕️

New research by Iballa Burunat, Daniel Levitin and Petri Toiviainen reveals how our brains process musical boundaries, turning endless sound into captivating, structured experiences. (1/2)

It turns out our brains switch on unique neural pathways around musical boundaries: as a phrase ends, auditory areas gear up for the transition, and large parts of your brain shut down right after, similar to how we process sentences in language! (2/2) doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Wonderful panel and concert on Aug. 23. Our own Suvi Saarikallio took the stage with Daniel Levitin Victor Wooten and host Marko Ahtisaari to discuss music as an art form, as a science, and as a key to well-being. Photo credit: @Helsinkifestival

New research shows that our brains react differently when we hear beautiful music compared to nonbeautiful music. Reward and visual brain areas light up with beauty, while more basic sensory areas respond to less appealing sounds. Music truly moves us! doi.org/10.1037/aca000…

Our latest study explores how iPad vs. Music Glove technology impacts learning in elementary music education. Results show both tools boost musical knowledge📷 but the iPad offers greater improvement. doi.org/10.48293/IJMST… #MusicEducation #EdTech
