This study, recently accepted for publication in the <em>Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences<\/em>, an interdisciplinary American journal, was led by Pascale Tremblay with a fantastic team composed of Maryline Joyal, Alexandre Sicard, and our collaborators, Professors Virginia Penhune from the Department of Psychology at Concordia University and Philip Jackson from the School of Psychology at Universit\u00e9 Laval. The study compares the executive functions of a group of singers \ud83c\udfa4 with those of instrumentalists \ud83c\udfb8\ud83c\udfbb and an active control group.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find out how singers and instrument players differ from non-musicians by exploring our infographic.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click on the infographic to view it in a larger format.
