This program supports applied research that aims to expand and/or develop new scientific understanding of human performance in music settings in its broadest sense. We prioritise research using socially valid and applied methodological approaches that can result in evidence-based solutions, applications and change in music training and performance in a range of settings.

Examples of project topics include the investigation of human factors (e.g., physiological, biomechanical, psychological, social, cultural) in music training and performance, career development and transitions, musicians’ health, practice and performance optimization, strategies for artistic growth and performance excellence, and the impact of music on health, wellbeing and social inclusion among a range of populations. We encourage projects that focus on under investigated topics and groups, music genres, musicians across the lifespan and all career stages, and cross-cultural studies.
