The UCD Music and Math Cognition Lab examines through behavioural, experimental and neuroscience approaches, the factors that impact maths learning, e.g., home learning environment, maths anxiety and developmental dyscalculia. Moreover, the Lab is focused on Music Science, including affective and cognitive aspects related to music listening and music playing, for instance, the anxiety of music performance or the effect of music on cognition. The Lab is led by Dr Flavia H. Santos andwelcomes undergraduate and graduate researchers at all levels. The Arithmos Project is the lab's flagship research funded by the Irish Research Council.
