Georgia Tech Neuroscientists Explore the Intersection of Music and Memory
Primary tabs
In two studies, Ph.D. student Yiren Ren's research explores music’s impact on learning, memory, and emotions. One reveals that familiar music can enhance concentration and learning, while the other demonstrates that music with a strong emotional tone can reshape the quality of existing memories. Her findings suggest that music could be used for therapeutic interventions for cognitive function, or in conditions like PTSD and depression.
