Mendel Kaelen

I’m Mendel Kaelen, a neuroscientist, entrepreneur, and creative working at the crossroads of music, consciousness and psychotherapy.

My research focuses on the therapeutic functions of music. I completed my PhD in Neuroscience at Imperial College London in 2017, specialising on understanding the roles of music in psychedelic therapy.

This pursuit continues to evolve through my company Wavepaths, where since 2019 I developed an adaptive music technology that is used in a growing variety of therapeutic practices around the world.

I share my thoughts through writing, lectures, workshops or interviews. When not working on these, you are likely to find me immersed in studying, creating or surfing various kinds of waves nearby or inside the Atlantic Ocean.
