Laura Cirelli is an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto Scarborough, where she directs the TEMPO lab (timing, entrainment, & music perception). Her research focuses on how engaging in musical activities can shape social and emotional experiences in infants. She is particularly interested in how infants engage with musical partners, the effects of infant-directed singing on the parent-infant relationship, and the development of rhythm perception. To explore these topics, Laura employs a range of behavioral and physiological methods, including skin conductance measurements and electroencephalography, to investigate the development of music perception and production.
