SUMMARY:The Sounds of Science: Hearing Music Through Art and Science
DESCRIPTION:Stop out to Site-1 Brewing on April 29 at 7pm to learn about “The Sounds of Science: Hearing Music Through Art and Science.” \nModerated by Dr. Allison Coffin\, Associate Professor at Creighton University\, panelists Dr. Chris Strecker\, Director of the Technology Core and Spatial Hearing and Auditory Neuroscience Lab and Dr. A. Barron Breland\, Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs & Dean of the Graduate School at Creighton University\, will lead a discussion on how we perceive sound and hearing from the arts and science perspectives. \n  \nSpeaker Bios: \nDr. Chris Stecker is the Director of the Technology Core and Spatial Hearing and Auditory Neuroscience Lab. Dr. Stecker has a bachelor’s degree in cognitive science and a doctorate in cognitive psychology. His current research focuses on using behavioral\, computational\, and neuroimaging (functional MRI) techniques to study how the brain processes spatial information. \nDr. A. Barron Breland is Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs & Dean of the Graduate School at Creighton University where he previously served as Chair of the Department of Fine & Performing Arts. He holds degrees in Music Theory and Choral Conducting from the University of Georgia and the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. He has arranged\, conducted\, and performed broadly and across genres. He is also the Artistic Director of the Heartland Mixed Chorus. \nDr. Allison Coffin is an Associate Professor at Creighton University. Her research examines the cellular mechanisms of hearing loss from diverse toxic insults (noise\, ototoxic drugs) and works to develop preventative or restorative therapies. Current research seeks to identify occult hearing (oto) toxins and develop predictive models to determine ototoxic potential early in pre-clinical drug development. She is also the co-founder and President of the Association of Science Communicators\, a professional organization that seeks to increase the impact of science in society.
