Cognitively Normal Older Adults clinical trials at UCSF

1 research study open to eligible people

Cognitively normal older adults are people with memory and thinking skills that match others their age. UCSF is studying how music improvisation affects self-control and brain activity using tests and recordings. UCSF is using noninvasive scans and simple behavior tests.

  • 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.
