Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation

Project coordinator: Manon Giraudier

In this study, we apply non-invasive transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) on healthy participants to investigate its influence on cognitive processes (attention, motor learning) using peripheral-physiological and central nervous parameters. We further investigate to the extent to which stimulation parameters (such as stimulation intensity, stimulation type, and stimulation duration) influence the efficacy of taVNS in order to better characterize the mechanisms of action of taVNS.
