The first cohort of the MuSICog lab! These @AugiePsych students have gone from no EEG experience to leading an EEG data collection workshop for a Neurobio course. Here they’ve just finished lab renovations, and we are planning for our first data collection in Spring 🧠 🎶

[AugiePsych @AugiePsych]

A full day’s work for directed research students in the musicog lab w/ @Shannon_Proksch today! They’re primed and ready to jump into some #musicscience #EEG research in the Spring.
