MHRI Third Annual Conference

Building on the national success of the first two annual conferences, the Music and Health Research Institute (MHRI) is opening its next annual conference in 2025 to proposals for oral presentations and posters as well as round tables and workshops highlighting research and outstanding practices at the intersection of music and health.

The Institute's annual conferences are national multidisciplinary initiatives that bring together leading researchers, students and practitioners in the fields of music, education, neuroscience, psychology, social sciences, health sciences and medicine, as well as people with lived experience. The aim is to contribute to the continuum of disciplines and partners working to explore and shape this emerging field, encourage a wider audience to take an interest in this research, and create new long-term links with stakeholders to promote collaborative working. By creating a rich environment that combines science and art, theory and practice, the MHRI annual conferences have acted as a catalyst for the development of robust research in music, health and well-being.

January 15, 2025 – Deadline for submissions
