At Berklee’s Music and Health Institute, we believe music is one of our most powerful yet underutilized resources for advancing health and well-being. We partner with leaders across technology, healthcare, the arts, and community sectors to translate cutting-edge research into human-centered, music-driven solutions—empowering people to thrive, connect, and heal.

An on-going partnership between the Kennedy Center and National Institutes of Health, in association with the National Endowment for the Arts exploring potential health benefits of music.

Workshop (December 14–15, 2023) aimed to highlight accomplishments from the last 6 years in advancing scientific research on music and health, develop a blueprint for the next phase of research, and further build the research community.
