These are the main themes of the International Workshop on the Biology and Genetics of Music, to be held in Bologna, May 20 to 22, with leading scientists currently involved in researching the mysteries of music, invited to explain their recent findings to the audience. The meeting is organized by the European Genetics Foundation and the Fondazione Pierfranco e Luisa Mariani, in collaboration with the Orchestra Mozart, the Municipality of Bologna and the University of Bologna. It is part of the agenda of the second edition of the Festival of Music and Genetics, taking place from May 12 to 22, 2007 (<span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">http:\/\/www.musicagenetica.it\/<\/span>).<\/div>\n<div>=====================================================================<br \/>\nsponsored by:\u00a0 &#8220;Why Mozart?&#8221;Learn\u00a0all about the so-called &#8220;Mozart Effect&#8221;\u00a0in Less Than 48 Hours! You Can Understand Why Mozart&#8217;s Musis Has Been Heralded by Musicians and Researchers Alike.\u00a0 Today&#8230;.Until September 30 the first 100 Blog Readers will get an extra bonus of a free NPR interview with Dr. Cash.\u00a0\u00a0 Order a download of the &#8220;Why Mozart&#8221; lecture and get your free bonus interview!<br \/>\n===================================================================<br \/>\nThe topics of the meeting are various: from the research of genes responsible for our becoming great pianists (or, on the contrary, being completely tone-deaf), to the evolution of music in the history of mankind through the comparison with other animal species; from the role played by music in children&#8217;s education, to the study of children to understand the musical mind. Why do infant prodigies exist? Why haven\u2019t we all become one? Are there any types of music that are objectively better suited to be more appreciated than others? And especially what is the purpose of music? These and other questions will be addressed by geneticists, psychologists, biologists, but also anthropologists and musicologists during the open conferences hosted in the Palazzo del Podest\u00e0. \u201cAll this is not just caused by curiosity: studying the way music is read, interpreted and appreciated by our brain enables us to understand many things about the workings of the mind \u2013 adds Maria Majno, Executive Director of the Fondazione Pierfranco e Luisa Mariani. For example, it opens the way to research certain pathologic conditions or track and even modify children\u2019s cognitive development. Also, it leads to imagining possible applications for patients with different medical problems as well as potential treatments based on listening and producing music\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Music under the microscope: the relation between biology and genetics and human music, its peculiarities and reasons.
