What is the research project about?
Memory for Music (M4M) is a research project evaluating the effects of music training focussed on learning new songs on cognitive abilities in home-dwelling non-musicians with Alzheimer's disease.
It is designed to provide strong evidence of clinical effects and brain mechanisms involved in music-making, and will contribute to a better understanding of Alzheimer's disease and neuroplasticity.
