Sarah Louise Hennessy.

Cognitive Scientist, Data Enthusiast, and Music-Lover.

I am a Post-Doctoral Scientist at the University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona, working with Dr. Jessica Andrews-Hanna and Dr. Matthew Grilli.

 

I recently completed my PhD at the University of Southern California’s Brain and Creativity Institute, studying Brain and Cognitive Science under the advisement of Dr. Assal Habibi and Dr. Antonio Damasio. ​

 

My research focuses on music-evoked emotion and memory, physiology, and the role of music in human development over the lifespan.

​

Outside of academia, I have worked at a Los Angeles-based startup, Rubato Life, as a Research and Data Scientist.
