November 2014
Looking forward to meeting participants at the training seminar 27 and 28 November at Queen's College Parkville.

In June 2014
International Association for Music & Medicine
The 3rd International Conference of IAMM was held at University of Toronto June 24-27 2014. Details here.
IAMM has low joining fees with 4 issues of the journal Music & Medicine per annum, and substantial discounts for conferences. Student rates and rates for people from the developing world are very reasonable. It is really fantastic to be part of this international group.
I am the Inaugural President of the IAMM. It was founded by Professor David Aldridge and Dr Joanne Loewy, who were the co-editors in chief of the Music & Medicine journal (SAGE) at the time of IAMM's inauguration at the University of Limerick in 2009. It was such a privilege to welcome so many IAMM Founding Members to Limerick for the meeting.
