Film Music, Testimony and the Holocaust
When I commenced my PhD journey three years ago at Edge Hill University in northern England, I had little idea of where the journey would take me, both literally and figuratively.
Muscologist Matt Lawson recently submitted his PhD thesis, focussing on the music used in German depictions of the Holocaust on screen. His early research has been disseminated at conferences across the UK, and also at international events in Australia, the Netherlands, Italy, Poland, Germany and the USA. He completed his undergraduate honours degree in Music at Huddersfield in 2009, and his MA with distinction from the University of York (2012).

USC Neuroscientists Use Testimony in Groundbreaking Study of Gratitude
When someone gives you a gift or does you a favor, what’s happening in your brain?
That’s what researchers from USC’s Department of Psychology and Brain and Creativity Institute have just discovered, with the help of testimony from the Visual History Archive. The research team of Glenn Fox, Jonas Kaplan, Hanna Damasio and Antonio Damasio has revealed its findings in the paper “Neural correlates of gratitude,” now published in the academic journal Frontiers in Psychology.
