Music listening for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether listening to music at home can help with mood and thinking after a stroke. You'll be asked to listen to music or audio stories for 30 minutes a day, and we'll use MRI scans to see how your brain responds.
