Professor Paul Dean holds the Kinnane Chair of Music at The University of Queensland's School of Music. His academic roles include teaching, research, and leadership in music performance and composition.

Research interests bridge music performance practices, contemporary composition techniques, and the intersection of art with technology. His work includes innovative adaptations of classical repertoire (e.g., Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite) and explorations of Australian Indigenous musical heritage through projects like Taken: Listening to Australia's Stolen Generations (2002).
Dean has collaborated with institutions such as the Queensland Performing Arts Centre and Bangalow Music Festival, contributing to ensemble development and audience engagement initiatives.
