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.
