| Dear all, Invitation to Music and Dementia Care Workshop We are pleased to invite you to our half-day
      workshop on
      Music and Dementia Care, which is a cooperation between IPEM
        (department of
        Musicology, Ghent University, Belgium) and NCA (department of
        Neuropsychology
        and Auditory Cognition, Lille 3 University, France). The focus
        is on
        constraints and requirements specific to studies involving
        people with
        dementia. The workshop aims at (1) a better understanding of the
        key principles
        for designing studies for people with neurodegenerative diseases
        and (2)
        gaining wider knowledge of how and why music-related activity in
        care giving
        centers work. In this workshop we bring together
        researchers from
        systematic musicology and neuropsychology and auditory cognition
        that recently
        conducted studies in care giving centers in Belgium and France,
        addressing these
        issues from different perspectives. Presenters are: Séverine
        Samson (Neuropsychology
and
        Auditory Cognition, University of Lille, Inst. Univ. de France
        and
        Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, Paris, France); Nathalie Ehrlé Workshop
