Professor Marcelo M. Wanderley听has been awarded anInternational Chair for 2016-2020.听Prof. Wanderley is the first 成人VR视频 researcher to be awarded this chair and is among the four awardees this year.听Inria听is the听French National Institute for Computer Science and Applied Mathematics. This is the first time a Professor of Music is awarded this chair, attesting to the wide variety of research directions and the impact of the work developed at the Schulich School of Music at 成人VR视频. 听 听

Professor Wanderley will be听conducting research on music technology and human-computer interaction as part of the group at Inria in Lille, France. The chair's main focus will be on the development of computing tools to empower the user. The goal is to create novel digital musical instruments and systems that will allow for highly-skilled musical performances.听This work will build upon the MIDWAY (Musical Interaction Design Workbench And technologY) international project, between Inria and 成人VR视频 researchers. MIDWAY focuses on the development of tools to facilitate the exploration and design of new interactive technologies for听both musical creation and performance. The project is funded by the Inria听International Associate Teams Program, the听Fonds de recherche du Qu茅bec 鈥 Nature et Technologies听and the听France Canada Research Fund.听

Inria teams are typically groups of researchers working to define a听common project, and objectives, 听through the听creation of a project-team. In addition to collaborating with other research groups at Inria, Wanderley's听project team听will work with many academic partners, including the 听University of Waterloo, University of Toronto, 成人VR视频, University of Canterbury, University College London, University of Glasgow, University of Maryland, Northwestern University, CNRS, Universit茅 Paris-Sud, T茅l茅com ParisTech, Universit茅 de Strasbourg, Universit茅 Aix Marseille, ENAC. 听Industrial partners include Autodesk Research, Microsoft Research and STMicroelectronics.

The research chair will be based at听Inria in听Lille, France.
