When high school student Advaith Iyer needed help with his directed studies project, he reached out to SFU's Institute for #Neuroscience and #Neurotechnology. He worked with neuroscientist and musician Sarah Faber to design a study to test the effects of playing music on the teenage brain. Check out their interview on #CBC's Early Edition to learn more about their story: https://ow.ly/YBsY50OMnOp #sfuinn #sfuscience #sfu @ar0mcintosh

Congratulations to Advaith Iyer, who won the #SFU Faculty of Science Award at the Greater Vancouver Regional Science Fair! Iyer worked with Sarah Faber at SFU's Institute for Neuroscience and Neurotechnology to design an experiment to test how playing music affects the brain. https://www.sfu.ca/sfunews/stories/2023/06/highschool-student-partners-with-sfu-music-specialist-to-researc.html #sfuinn #sfuscience #neuroscience
