About Andrea McGraw Hunt

My research interests follow two primary tracks: Neuroimaging for music therapy, and social justice and music therapy. My interests in neuroimaging concern naturalistic and in-vivo methods to understand the clients' and therapists' engagement in music therapy experiences. My interests in social justice relate to best practices in community music therapy, including addressing systems that marginalize oppressed groups, as well as increasing accessibility and inclusion in community and organizational ensembles.
