By integrating music and health, we explore how music can play a role in health and how health relates to music, from hearing and perceiving to responding and communicating.

Complementarity

The Institute is a network of researchers, clinicians, health practitioners, music educators, decision-makers and members of various community associations that contribute a multiplicity of skills, knowledge, content, methods, tools and technologies within five inter-connected thematic research areas.
