Bradley Vines holds a Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology from McGill University, and a B.A. in Cognitive Science from the University of California at Berkeley. He has completed further training in neuroimaging and clinical neuroscience as a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard Medical School (Department of Neurology), the UC Davis Center for Mind and Brain, and the UBC Institute of Mental Health (Department of Psychiatry). Vines’ basic research explores the body movements of musicians and audience-performer communication, using motion-tracking techniques and behavioral measures (Vines et al., 2003, 2005, 2006; Wanderley & Vines, 2006; Wanderley, Vines et al., 2005). His translational and clinical research advances therapies utilizing music and non-invasive brain stimulation (Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation) for stroke recovery and for treating depression (Vines et al., 2006abc, 2007ab). In support of this work, Vines develops new applications of Functional Data Analysis techniques for quantifying time-varying dynamics of motion and emotion (Levitin, Nuzzo, Vines, Ramsay, 2007; McAdams, Vines et al., 2004; Vines et al., 2005). Competitive grants from the following agencies have funded his research: The Michael Smith Foundation for Health Research, the National Institutes of Health (National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke), the GRAMMY Foundation, the J. W. McConnell Foundation, and the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Music Media and Technology (CIRMMT).
