Society for Music Perception and Cognition

The Society for Music Perception and Cognition (SMPC) is an organization dedicated to advancing scientific understanding of how humans perceive, process, and understand music. It brings together researchers from fields like psychology, neuroscience, and musicology to share findings, collaborate, and promote study on topics such as musical perception, memory, emotion, and cognition. By fostering interdisciplinary exchange, SMPC aims to deepen knowledge about the mental and neural mechanisms involved in musical experiences, ultimately contributing to both scientific progress and practical applications in education, therapy, and technology.
