In today’s episode, we are joined by Dr. Emily Coffey who researches music, language, sleep, and how it relates to neuroplasticity. Have you ever wondered if you should be signing your child up for music lessons? Or if your child should learn more than one language at a time? What about how your brain might be influenced by sleep? All of these common questions are discussed in today’s episode. Tune in and take out your Curious Neuron notebook because we get a bit technical talking about how research involving music, language, and sleep is being conducted. Importantly, we learn about music in noise tasks and how they may be able to help your child focus in class.You can read more about Dr. Coffey’s research here.If you’re interested in taking part in research about music, language, and the brain check out:CRBLM: Centre for Research on Brain, Language, and MusicBRAMS: International Laboratory for BRAin, Music and Sound ResearchThank you to our supporter the Tanenbaum Open Science Institute at The Neuro.
