It’s great to hear from Dr @Daisy_Fancourt at the @libsconnected Seminar - epic research to better understand the impact of culture, arts and leisure activities. So helpful to map the barriers to inclusion as well as the clear benefits. Data and insights! ❤️ #LCSeminar24

A pioneering expert in the field, today’s #Neuromusic8 keynote speaker @Daisy_Fancourt shared thoughts on why music and arts support our well-being. While music reduces our stress levels, for example, a closer look on molecular biomarkers reveals new, exciting mechanisms. 🧬✨
