How do we know which sounds matter in a world full of noise?

Join us for a free Lecture Me! talk with Dr. Christina Vanden Bosch der Nederlanden from the University of Toronto Mississauga's Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences.

Discover how children learn two of our most important forms of communication, music and language, and explore how the brain identifies meaningful sounds in busy environments. Learn how musical patterns can support speech perception and gain fascinating insights into how we listen, learn, and communicate.
