The four-day scientific programme of the conference is of highest international level, featuring exciting presentations on the cutting-edge of music neuroscience research and its many applications in the fields of development, education, and rehabilitation. The programme includes a Keynote Lecture, 10 thematic Symposia, 3 Poster Sessions, 3 Best Poster Talk Sessions, and 3 Pre-Conference Workshops.
