Drumming Study:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
Drum up discovery in an exciting new study! Your child will complete a few different activities, including drumming, while we safely measure their brain waves. Trained lab members will put a non-invasive cap on your child’s head that will allow us to examine underlying brain activity. Your child will receive 8 weeks of drumming lessons, which\u00a0 will begin after the first or second visit to the lab. We are looking for participants between the ages of 7 and 12 that have been diagnosed with Down syndrome.\u00a0

The parent of a participant shared that her son really enjoyed his drumming lessons. They had a positive experience during their on-campus visits to Vanderbilt and looked forward to seeing the research assistants there. She is glad that she and her son participated in the study and said that it was a good experience for him.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
