Hey yall! Welcome back to 5 Minute Science With Aanya, its your host, AANYA. Todays podcast episode has to do with music, and its connections to STEM!! Essentially, exploring how music affects one’s mood and how our brains function, and even the physical benefits of music. To spark some curiosity, did you know that over 90 studies reported that music helps people manage both acute and chronic pain better than medication alone, quite a remarkable statistic! I hope you enjoy this informational episode on how science has effects on all parts of our lives, including the music we listen too.
