On September 19, the PhD in Communication, engineer and musician will participate in the Florida Room with a presentation on the therapeutic potential of music and its scientific basis.
Music is part of our daily lives, but it can also be much more than entertainment. Its relationship with the brain, emotions, nervous system, and well-being will be one of the main themes of the event with which Fraga will celebrate its first anniversary as a Compassionate Community next Saturday, September 19.
The Florida Room will host, starting at 10:30 a.m. and with free admission until full capacity is reached, a day that will have as one of its main protagonists Jordi A. Jauset, PhD , who will offer the presentation The therapeutic potential of music and its scientific bases.
A profile that combines music, science, and health
Jauset's presence brings to the meeting a perspective especially linked to the spirit of a Compassionate Community: exploring new forms of accompaniment and well-being from a perspective that connects health, science, culture and community.
Jauset holds a doctorate in Communication, is an engineer and musician, and also has a master's degree in Psychobiology and Cognitive Neuroscience. His relationship with music began in childhood, and he completed professional piano studies at age 15 before beginning his studies in Telecommunications Engineering. He later pursued doctoral studies in Biomedical Engineering and earned a doctorate in Communication.
Her subsequent career has focused particularly on the dissemination and research of music, neuroscience, and health . In 2021, she designed the first Spanish Master's program in Neuromusic and currently coordinates the Master's in Continuing Education in Neuroscience of Music at the University of Lleida, a program that brings together knowledge from fields such as medicine, psychology, education, music, and neuroscience.
His work analyzes, among other things, how music can be related to emotions, cognitive functions, well-being, and different therapeutic applications.
A presentation specifically linked to well-being
Fraga's intervention also comes at a particularly busy time for the researcher and science communicator. In 2026, he published *Sounds for Your Well-being* , a work dedicated to exploring the relationship between sound, neuroscience, and health, and analyzing what current research says about its potential applications for well-being.
Her recent work also includes the study of the relationship between music and the regulation of the nervous system in healthcare settings , a line of research that connects especially with healthcare professionals and the field of care.
Therefore, her presentation in Fraga may be of interest not only to those who work in the health field or participate in compassionate community initiatives, but also to musicians, teachers, music therapists, students and anyone interested in knowing what happens in our brain when we listen to music and what possibilities it can offer from the point of view of well-being.
The day will be completed with speeches by Rogelio Altisent , director of ECOPAL Aragón, and Natalia Fortón , coordinator of ECOPAL-Fraga, in addition to the performance of the Fraga City Music Band , scheduled for 12:15 pm.
Entry will be free until the Florida Room reaches capacity.
