Today on Creative Currents, we explore the intersection of music and mental health. Our guest is Sasha Gusikhin, an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan pursuing a fascinating and surprisingly common double major: Biopsychology, Cognition, and Neuroscience (BCN) in LSA plus Voice Performance in our School of Music, Theatre & Dance.
Sasha Gusikhin is an arts-organizer, vocalist, and multidisciplinary artist in her third year studying neuroscience and voice performance at the University of Michigan. She is the executive director of the Aphasia Community Friendship Center of Michigan, which fuses principles of neuroscience and the arts to foster community healing for persons with communication disorders. As a UMS 21st Century Artist Intern, Sasha collaborates with the Philadelphia Orchestra to develop programming at the intersection of arts and health. Her mission is to utilize the arts to raise mental health awareness through a uniquely science-integrated lens and to advocate for precise mental health treatment, leading her to launch the new arts-presenting organization, NeuroArts Productions.
