Martin Miguel

Dr. Martin (March) Miguel is a computer scientist (B.Sc. and M.Sc.) from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina. He started researching rhythm cognition interested in how the timing of events can produce affective responses in a listener. To that aim, he developed models and formalisms for the analysis of beat expectation and ambiguity, with focus on producing observations of relevance for experimental research. He joined LIVELab and the TRIMBAlab as a Postdoc in the Department of Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour at McMaster University to continue working on questions regarding rhythm perception. Outside (and nearby) research, his interests include biking, music, social dance, tap dance, rock climbing, politics, economics, video games and board games.
