Research interests
I am a post-doctoral fellow in the BRAMS lab at the Université de Montréal, working with Dr. Isabelle Peretz. My main research interests include auditory perception, age-related changes in auditory perception, neural plasticity and how music training can improve basic auditory processes, especially in older adults. To investigate these questions, I use multiple psychoacoustic and neuro-scientific techniques (including EEG, MEG and fMRI) to investigate neuro-plastic changes in the brain’s of lifelong musicians, and other who have undergone auditory training.
