Dr. Lusine Gomtsian Eyde

Welcome to “The Scientific Pianist” – where the art of piano meets the precision of science. I’m passionate about sharing scientific insights to enhance piano learning, teaching, and understanding.

I’m a classically trained pianist, holding a PhD in Medical Pharmacology/Neuroscience from the University of Arizona College of Medicine and a Bachelor’s in Biological Sciences from the University of Illinois at Chicago. I studied under the world-renowned Emilio del Rosario at the Music Institute of Chicago, performed widely, taught over 100 students, and have been refining my teaching methods for the past 18 years. My passion lies at the fascinating crossroads of neuroscience and piano, seeking scientifically proven methods to enhance learning and performance. Currently, I offer private online lessons – if you are interested in lessons, please reach out via my contact form.
