Yiren Ren, a sixth-year Ph.D. student in Georgia Tech’s School of Psychology, is studying how music impacts learning and memory. Writer Jerry Grillo conjectures that "possibly, she’s listening to Norah Jones, or another musician she’s comfortable with. Because that’s how it works: The music we know and might love, music that feels predictable or even safe — that music can help us study and learn. Meanwhile, Ren has also discovered, other kinds of music can influence our emotions and reshape old memories."
