Professor Lauren Stewart

Summary

Lauren is Professor of Psychology at Goldsmiths where she founded the MSc in Music Mind and Brain and co-leads a research group in this area. She has published widely on topics including learning and plasticity, congenital amusia, earworms and therapeutic aspects of music. She has been engaged in several citizen science and public engagement projects, including a Silent Disco earworm experiment at Manchester’s Museum of Science and Industry, a live experiment on musical plagiarism at the Science Museum’s Dana Centre and an in depth discussion on the ‘Tingle Factor’ in music as part of Radio 3’s Wellcome Collection residency.

Grants and Awards

Lauren has received external grant funding from a variety of organisations to support her work including: British Academy, ESRC, MRC/AHRC, Leverhulme Trust and SEMPRE.

Public Engagement and Knowledge Exchange

Lauren has been extensively involved in science communication for the interested non-specialist as well as public engagement and citizen science projects. Examples include:


• ‘Sound of Happy’ project with Dr Caspar Addymann and composer, Imogen Heap (with Cow and Gate baby club)
• ‘Strike your own Chord’ live experiment on musical plagiarism at the Science Museum’s DANA centre (with Dr Daniel Mullensiefen)
• Silent Disco at Manchester’s Museum of Science and Industry to empirically test theories about earworm occurrence in a real-world setting
• Involvement with a range of media presentations including BBC (radio, television, and online media), National Public Radio, Al-Jazeera and CNN.

Research Interests

Currently, Lauren is engaged in projects to explore

  • the relationship between infants' language development and the exposure to musical interactions in the home environment (with Drs Fabia Franco and NinaPolitimou, Middlesex University)
  • the extent to which stroke survivors can make use of real-time auditory feedback to guide efficient movement patterns (with PhD student, Pedro Douglass-Kirk)
  • the potential for community based group singing to support women's mental health in the perinatal period (an international collaboration based in The Gambia, funded by the MRC/AHRC (with PhD student Katie Rose Sanfilippo).
