Sound Health Music Science Fellowships

“The number of stories and viral videos attesting to the promise of music therapy in clinical applications has grown substantially … yet even with decades of practical application, we do not fully understand how music and music therapy achieve these beneficial effects, or how to optimize them for the individual patient. We now have the opportunity to connect our rapidly increasing insights from neuroscience with the clinical experience of applying music therapy in practice.”

Sound Health Music Science Fellowships

Music and science together hold the power to heal and transform lives. The Sound Health Music Science Fellowships, which bring together the vision of the Renée Fleming Foundation and the transformative science of the National Institutes of Health, drive groundbreaking research on music’s therapeutic potential in addressing neurological diseases and mental health challenges, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and PTSD. This partnership integrates music with health by promoting research, fostering collaboration, translating discoveries into treatments, building community, and raising public awareness. We invite you to join us as we transform lives, one note at a time.

Join us today to shape the future of medicine.

Music is more than just sound—it’s a powerful tool that can heal, restore, and transform. The Sound Health Music Science Fellowships will be established as a critical step towards harnessing the healing power of music.

With your support, we can:

• • Propel innovative research that explores the healing potential of music.
• • Help develop new therapies that use music to improve quality of life for millions.
• • Be a part of a movement that brings art and science together in revolutionary ways.

Let’s make music medicine.

Join us on this extraordinary journey to bring the healing power of music into the heart of medicine. Together, we can make a profound and lasting impact!
