First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study explores whether intensive singing lessons can improve thinking, memory, and mood in people with early-stage Alzheimer's. Over 5 months, participants will take twice-weekly singing lessons with a personal teacher, then switch to once-a-month sessions. Researchers will measure changes in cognition, brain activity, and emotional well-being. The goal is to see if learning new songs can help slow cognitive decline and enhance quality of life.
