This interdisciplinary event brings together engineering disciplines focusing on neurological and cognitive mechanisms with musicology and psychology.
A Meet the Expert event connected to the public defence of Wannes Van Ransbeeck (PhD candidate) on Neuroadaptive System Design for Rhythmic Human–Machine Interaction.
The event will feature three talks by jury members, creating an opportunity for extended exchange of knowledge and triggering creativity and out-of-the-box thinking. The overall topic involves human cognition and music experience.
This interdisciplinary event will bring together engineering disciplines focusing on neurological and cognitive mechanisms with musicology and psychology. Beyond learning from the experts, the event is also a unique opportunity for bringing together PhD students and postdoctoral researchers working in these related fields that usually don’t cross discipline boundaries.
