Abstract

Research in cognitive neurosciences has developed significantly and has enabled the mechanisms of neuroplasticity to be studied in order to understand the effect of music practice. In children, this research concerns mainly the impact of music learning in the setting of a music conservatory. Moreover, recent studies have also sought to measure the clinical benefits of music interventions on hospital wards, providing a scientific basis to these practices.

Keywords: cognition; development; développement; music; musique; neonatology; neuro-imagerie; neuro-imaging; néonatologie.
