How your brain benefits from music, with Larry Sherman (Ep. 115)

Описание: Music plays an important role in all of our lives. But listening to music or playing an instrument is more than just a creative outlet or hobby — it’s also scientifically good for us. Research shows that music can stimulate new connections in our brains; keeping our cognitive abilities sharp and our memories alive.

In a new book entitled Every Brain Needs Music: The Neuroscience of Making and Listening to Music, Prof. Larry Sherman explores why we all need music for our mental well-being — and how it can even help us later in life.

Sherman is a professor of neuroscience at Oregon Health & Science University.
