I have been invited to speak about 'Music technology for healthcare and cognitive insights' for the Centre for Brain Computing Research Seminar Series next week!
Here's the abstract of my talk:

I'm very happy to announce that as of January 1st, I've started a new tenure-track Assistant Professor position at the the prestigious Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music, at the National University of Singapore (NUS). My faculty page may be found here. It's a top-tier university, and I couldn't be more grateful for this amazing opportunity.

I'm greatly looking forward to giving a talk and masterclass tomorrow at the International Science Youth Forum. I’ll be speaking about music cognition, statistical learning, and music technology for healthcare. I am humbled and honoured to be speaking alongside five Nobel laureates, a Millennium Technology Prize winner, and a Fields Medal winner, amongst others.

I'm thrilled to be giving one of the keynote talks at this year's International Music and Performing Arts Conference (IMPAC2018) in Malaysia, 13-15 November. I will be speaking on: Expectations, expectations, expecta...: Highlighting a fundamental concept in music cognition, and exploring its relevance to healthcare
