Dance, Movement, and the Brain with Constantina Theofanopoulou, Ph.D.

Dance is a universal part of our culture—whether you’re doing ballet, ballroom, the latest TikTok dance craze, or just freestyling on the dance floor with friends. It turns out this urge to express ourselves through movement has some fantastic side benefits. A growing body of research is revealing that dancing can be therapeutic, emotionally uplifting, and healthy for our brains. Join Secret Science Club with neuroscientist & dancer Constantina Theofanopoulou to explore how dance, rhythm, and movement affect our minds, our moods, and our well-being.

She is the Herbert and Nell Singer Research Assistant Professor at Rockefeller University, a Visiting Scholar at New York University, and a Research Associate at Emory University and the US Department of Veteran Affairs.
