|---|---|
| Awardee | Yale University |
| Project Number | MH123028-01 |
| Funding Opportunity Announcement | RFA-AT-19-001 |

| Summary |
This research will examine the relationship of two prevalent music and memory phenomena, the vivid reliving of memories triggered by music and having fragments of music repeating, and how they may help to consolidate memories not only for the music itself, but also for non-musical information that has been associated with the music. |

|---|---|
| Awardee | Vanderbilt University |
| Project Number | MH123029-01 |
| Funding Opportunity Announcement | RFA-AT-19-001 |
| Summary | This study aims to support the development of evidence-based music interventions for social communication in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), using infant-directed singing, music and rhythm to enhance understanding of social information delivered during naturalistic behavioral interventions for ASD. |
| Project Title | Effects of Music Training on Auditory Processing and High-Frequency Hearing Abilities in Adolescent Musicians |
|---|---|
| Awardee | University of Rochester |
| Project Number | DC018700-01 |
| Funding Opportunity Announcement | RFA-NS-19-009 |
