Working well together: Interpersonal synchrony in sound, mind, and body
Caroline Palmer
Caroline Palmer is a Professor of Psychology at McGill University.
Internationally recognized for her interdisciplinary research in auditory cognition, Dr. Palmer holds the Canada Research Chair in Cognitive Neuroscience of Performance and she directs a national training network in Complex Dynamics of Brain and Behaviour. Her pioneering work uncovered temporal relationships among interpretation, emotion and meaning in music performance and speech prosody that have altered our understanding of how complex acoustics communicate information among musicians, speakers, and listeners. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, Palmer’s weapon of choice is the piano.
