Their research is focused on the development of rhythmic entrainment and the relationships between music and social communication and engagement in individuals with and without developmental disorders. Miriam Lense, PhD leads our Music & Social Engagement Group. Reyna Gordon, PhD leads our Rhythm & Grammar Group, an interdisciplinary team focused on exploring the role of rhythm in language development and disorders from behavioral, cognitive, neural, and genetic perspectives. Our research examines the relationship between rhythm and grammar skills in typical development and developmental language disorder, the neural mechanisms underlying rhythm and grammar skills, the genetics of language disorders, and how musical training can improve language skills. The Lab is co-Directed by Dr. Reyna Gordon and Dr. Our lab employs a variety of behavioral and physiological methods in our research including electroencephalography, eye-tracking, speech analysis, neuroimaging, genetics, behavioral coding, and various standardized and experimental assessment measures.
We facilitate the exchange of ideas between faculty members in neuroscience, psychology, education, audiology, speech-language pathology, medicine, music, engineering, and undergraduate and graduate students.
The lab is focused on the relationship between music, language, and social development. Welcome to the Vanderbilt Music Cognition Lab.
