Call for Poster Presentations - Music and Health Research Institute Conference (May 21-24, 2024,  at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre

Music, health, and the community:  Catalyzing research on community-based music programs for health and well-being

May 21-24, 2024, at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre

In May 2024, the Institute for Research on Music and Health and its partners will offer a comprehensive series of outreach and knowledge mobilization activities on community-based music practices and their benefits for health and well-being. This national multidisciplinary initiative will bring together leading researchers and students from across Canada in the fields of music education, neuroscience, psychology, social sciences, health sciences and medicine, as well as music educators, health practitioners and people with lived experience. The aim is to explore how the different disciplines and partners can work together to shape this emerging field, encourage a wider audience to take an interest in this research, and create new long-term links with stakeholders to promote collaborative work. By creating a rich environment that combines science and art, theory and practice, this event aims to be a catalyst for the development of strong research on community-based music, health and well-being. 


We invite students and postdocs to submit a proposal for a poster presentation.

We seek to showcase presentations highlighting research in music and health from various perspectives and disciplines.  Students and postdocs can submit proposals for research projects around music and health, including the four conference themes: 

  • THEME 1 – Inclusion and Accessibility in Music Education 

  • THEME 2 – Advances in musician’s health and wellbeing 

  • THEME 3 – Connecting community-based music and movement programs with mental health research 

  • THEME 4 – Connecting community-based singing programs with rehabilitation research 

Posters will be presented in person.
Presenters must be, or become members of the Music and Health Music Institute.

If you are interested in presenting, please complete this questionnaire before April 3rd, 2024 (previously March 31, 2024). 

Abstracts will be evaluated according to their relevance to the conference, the quality of the research and compliance with the submission guidelines. The selection committee's decision will be sent to you by April 23 at the latest.

If you have questions, please send an email to Jeffrey Sabo (jsabo010@uottawa.ca)

We look forward to showcasing MHRI student work at this exciting event!

Sincerely, 

The MHRI Training and Mentoring Team
