SPEAKER BIOGRAPHIES
Michelle Phillips is a Senior Lecturer in Music Psychology and Head of Enterprise (Academic) at the Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester, UK. Her research interests include music and time, perception of contemporary music, audience response to live and recorded music, entrepreneurship, and music and Parkinson’s. She is co-investigator with Manchester Camerata for a study examining physiological, behavioural and neurological response to live and recorded music. Recent publications include a co-edited volume entitled ‘Music and Time: Psychology, Philosophy, Practice’ and an article on ‘What Determines the Perception of Segmentation in Contemporary Music?’ Michelle’s research has been included in news and media shows including ITV Granada News and BBC Radio 4. She has advised science museums in London and Moscow on exhibitions regarding music and science, and most recently worked with the Science and Industry Museum Manchester on their current ‘Turn It Up: The Power of Music’ exhibition, which features Michelle’s research. Michelle was recently Principal Investigator of the two-year StART Entrepreneurship Project, in partnership with the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama and University of the Arts London (funded by a £902,153 grant from the Office for Students and Research England). The StART Project sought to explore how best to support creative students to embark on freelance and portfolio careers, and to lead the creative industry of the future.

A key aspect of her work has been the development of innovative arts-based inquiry and expertise in music and music education. Recent awards include: a Fulbright Senior Research Fellowship in 2018 to undertake preliminary investigations of children’s singing and song-making in the archives of the Smithsonian Institute, and the Library of Congress (Washington DC); elected Beaufort Visiting Research Fellow at St John’s College University of Cambridge in 2019; a research residency funded by the Foundation de Maison des Sciences de l’Homme at IRCAM (Institute for Research and Coordination in Acoustics /Musique) investigating creative pedagogy and transmission practices in 2019.

Within this role, she co-ordinates the professional experience (practicum) placement program for SCM students into multiple Arts industry settings, regional conservatoria and local, country and international schools. Jennifer is particularly interested in areas of identity development for beginning music teachers as they transition from novice to expert and emerge as musician teachers. Her background in gifted education provides research expertise in musicians’ talent development and musical, academic, and socio/emotional nurturing throughout the school years. Her last 10 years has seen funded research grants into the impact of the ePortfolio for fostering enhanced career preparation within frameworks developing a sense of possible future self. Jennifer is committed to musician’s professional learning and how individual cognitive, social, emotional, and behavioural needs of all learners can be met in a diverse range of educational settings.
