The workshop will be hosted by the Centre of Excellence in Music, Mind, Body and Brain (CoE MMBB) at the University of Jyväskylä, which studies music as a multimodal human experience and as a versatile engine of change, throughout the life span and in health and disease. As a multidisciplinary research centre, it combines musicology, psychology, education, music therapy, computer science, and cognitive neuroscience.
The workshop will take place at the Musica building of the Seminaarinmäki Campus, situated near the city centre. There are many bars, eateries, and hotels within walking distance of the conference venue. Below you may find a map to the venue.
University of Jyväskylä Department of Music, Art and Culture Studies, Seminaarinkatu 15, Musica Building
