Ever wondered how biology, genetics and human music are related and why it happens? The idea of combination of music and genetics erupted within the European Genetics Foundation.
Professor Giovanni Romeo, medical geneticist, University of Bologna stated:
We realized how music is in itself an extraordinary communication vehicle, also when discussing scientific topics. But we also understood the existence of many analogies between the evolution of languages and cultures (with music at the very top) and various aspects of human evolution. Music highlights the cultural links between populations; likewise genetics gives us the means to highlight biological kinships. In this logic, we thought it would be interesting to gather musicians and researchers in a single event, to offer meetings and debates as well as entertainment to the general audience.
I probably agree with the thoughts of the professor and his logic on the relation of genetics and music. I had never in my wildest dreams thought that music could be related to genetics. Hats off to the team at the University who came up with such wonderful thoughts!!
