Laura Herrero is a Professor and researcher at Camilo José Cela University in Spain, holding a PhD in Psychology from the National Distance University (UNED). Her expertise spans music processing, executive functioning, memory, neuropsychology, and statistics, with applied focus on cognitive rehabilitation and educational technology. Her doctoral research at UNED investigated executive functioning mechanisms in cognitive tasks, establishing the foundation for her interdisciplinary work bridging psychology and music cognition. This educational trajectory positioned her to explore neural and cognitive underpinnings of complex human behaviors. Dr. Herrero's research program reveals dual trajectories: fundamental investigations into cognitive processes during musical performance (particularly sight-reading), and translational applications in neurorehabilitation and special education. Her work demonstrates how executive functions like cognitive flexibility and inhibitory control operate in real-time dynamic tasks, while simultaneously developing therapeutic interventions for stroke recovery and Down Syndrome. Publication analysis (2019-2024) shows evolving emphasis from basic cognitive mechanisms in music performance toward clinical rehabilitation applications. Recent work prioritizes meta-analyses of music therapy efficacy for stroke patients and technology-assisted interventions for neurodevelopmental conditions, reflecting growing translational impact. Earlier studies established critical links between working memory sub-processes and musical expertise. She actively contributes to scientific discourse as Associate Editor for Neuroscience and Psychology at Frontiers for Young Minds, mentoring youth engagement with cognitive science. Her collaborative network includes international researchers from Sibelius Academy, University of Zaragoza, and University of Melbourne, indicating strong interdisciplinary partnerships across European institutions.
