ERC 10k Grantees Celebration : 15 Ways the ERC Transformed Science : #12 Unlocking the therapeutic power of music through mathematics (Chew) (+PODCAST)

Description

#12 Unlocking the therapeutic power of music through mathematics (Chew)
Developing mathematical models to describe the role of musical performance could open the door to new applications, including treating cardiac arrhythmia. ERC grantee Elaine Chew has brought together radically different disciplines in order to drive and expand our understanding of this complex and elusive concept.
