Changes in brain functional connectivity associated with transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation in healthy controls
This study is an initial step toward understanding the functional connectivity changes associated with TaVNS. The findings indicate significant brain changes, particularly in areas that are involved with emotional processing and regulation, as well as cognition. Future studies can expand on this data and focus on specific patient populations to determine the effects of TaVNS.
