Cognitively Normal Older Adults clinical trials at UCSF

1 research study open to eligible people

Cognitively normal older adults are people over 60 with typical memory and thinking abilities. UCSF is testing if music improvisation can improve brain functions in these individuals. The study looks at how making music might help with self-regulation.

  • Music Improvisation Training on Cognitive Function in Older Adults

    open to eligible people ages 60 years and up

    This project will study the effects and mechanisms of a music improvisation training intervention on self-regulation of older adults with and without MCI. The investigator's overall hypothesis is that improvisation training will lead to improvements in self-regulation, compared to controls, and that improvisation training will be associated with specific changes in prefrontal brain networks and ultimately cognitive engagement.
