UCC President launches MINdDS Website
President John O’Halloran recently welcomed Dr Eva Mc Mullan, Professor Yvonne Nolan and members of the Rhythm family to the President's Office to launch the new MINdDS UCC Research Project website.
Leading the MINdDS project is Dr McMullan, Department of Music UCC, with supervisors Professor Nolan, Department of Anatomy and Neuroscience, Dr Jason Chan and Dr Annalisa Setti from the School of Applied Psychology, UCC.
The MINdDS website, developed by Bereniece Riedewald, Department of Anatomy and Neuroscience, highlights the work that this energetic team are undertaking and showcases exciting research on the impact of music on brain function in children with Down Syndrome being undertaken by colleagues in UCC with expertise in music, neuroscience and psychology.
The MINdDS project reflects the interdisciplinary collaborations that are now being harnessed within the University to ensure excellence in research. Bringing the fields of psychology and neuroscience together with music, this wonderful work aims to nurture and celebrate all childrens’ ability, by exploring the impact of a music intervention in the lives of children with Down Syndrome. This much needed research will not only resonate on a national level, but also have an impact internationally. Here at UCC, I am delighted to support Dr. McMullan's important and progressive research that will encourage further investigation into the vital role music has in the lives of children of all abilities.
