an accessible, affordable, transversal way to provide patient-centred care that will improve their health and well-being?<\/p>\n<p>After four years spent observing the amazing effects of live music on countless patients during the hospital interventions organised by M\u00fasica en Vena, the association\u2019s director at the time, Juan Alberto Garc\u00eda de Cubas, now president of Cultura en Vena, initiated a research project to find scientific evidence of those effects. And so, in 2016, the MIR Project was born: in Spanish, the programme is called M\u00fasicos Internos Residentes, a play on the better-known meaning of the MIR acronym\u2014M\u00e9dicos Internos Residentes, doctors who are completing their specialty training\u2014meant to highlight the goal of making professional musicians part of the regular hospital staff.<\/p>\n<p><mark>The MIR Project aims to clinically prove that music has a positive impact<br \/>on patient health, using young unemployed<br \/>musicians to do so.<\/mark><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had organised hundreds of concerts, worked with thousands of musicians, and benefited many more patients who had been transformed by the power of music. That\u2019s why we decided, via the M\u00fasica en Vena association, to undertake seven unprecedented clinical studies with the fundamental cooperation of Hospital 12 de Octubre, after getting approval from the hospital\u2019s Ethics Committee for Clinical Research,\u201d says Juan Alberto Garc\u00eda de Cubas, who continues to spearhead the MIR Project from his new position at Fundaci\u00f3n Cultura en Vena.<\/p>\n<p>The MIR Project was designed to have a triple impact:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <mark>Hospital humanisation:<\/mark> improve clinical protocols through the experience of live music offered by a first-class professional musician.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <mark>Clinical research:<\/mark> participate in the search for scientific evidence of how music benefits people\u2019s health.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <mark>Musician employability:<\/mark> create new circuits that offer innovative career opportunities for young unemployed musicians.<\/p>\n<p>Within Cultura en Vena\u2019s general aim of implementing artistic practices in hospital settings, the MIR Project has the more specific goal of normalising the presence of musicians in clinical protocols, with scientific evidence to support and justify the need for live music in certain medical treatments.<\/p>\n<p><mark>Patients improve, doctors are surprised by the results, and musicians find an expressive new<br \/>way to earn a living: a necessary project.<\/mark><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section
