Biographie
Jessica Phillips-Silver received her Ph.D. in
Psychology, Neuroscience and Behaviour at McMaster
University, where she worked with
Professor Laurel Trainor in the Auditory Development Lab. Jessica then pursued
her postdoctoral training in music neuropsychology at BRAMS, at the University of Montreal, under the supervision of
Professor Isabelle Peretz. Jessica is also a vocal performer and music
educator, trained at Carnegie Mellon University,
and currently collaborates on a Cuban jazz project in Montreal.
At BRAMS, Jessica is studying the basic musical ability of perceiving and synchronizing movement to the beat in music. Her research employs motion capture of body movement to evaluate the precision of people’s dance movement to real music, and perceptual judgment tasks to evaluate people’s ability to judge the precision of videos of a model dancing to music. Jessica documents these abilities in healthy adults and children, as well as in amusic populations. Jessica is also interested in music entrainment and synchronization individuals with cochlear implants.
