We’re excited to share two new funding opportunities?available for music and health researchers:

?

1. The ?is designed to support PhD students in gaining research experience and training in mechanistic research related to music for pain management. This program offers a unique opportunity for scholars to engage in immersive residential training experiences. Applications are due August 23, 2024. . Contact: music4pain@....

?

2. The ?will support 1-year pilot studies to generate the necessary preliminary data to strengthen future NIH applications for later-stage studies on mechanisms through which music may have a positive impact on health in the context of pain or Alzheimer’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias?(AD/ADRD). These pilot studies will also facilitate multidisciplinary collaborations among neuroscientists, music therapists, musicians, and biomedical, behavioral, or social scientists. Applications are due October 1, 2024. . Contacts: Music & Dementia Research Network; Music4Pain Research Network; AudioAnalgesiA; ENSEMBLE.
