Funding award from FENS and DANA foundation for brain research

For Brain Awareness Week, Prof. Mads Haahr from Trinity College Dublin (TCD) launched an AR app showcasing music interpreted by synaesthete artists based on compositions by Liszt, Scriabin, Rachmaninov, and others. The event featured talks by Prof. Richard Roche, Dr. Svetlana Rudenko, and Prof. Mads Haahr, with a Q&A session at the end. Attendees also got to try the app on campus.

This multisensory project, supported by FENS and DANA Funding, combines art, music, and neuroscience - reflecting years of collaboration to explore synaesthesia's creative and perceptual dimensions.
