Cortical Map Plasticity as a Function of Vagus Nerve Stimulation Intensity

Cortical Map Plasticity as a Function of Vagus Nerve Stimulation Intensity

Background: Pairing sensory or motor events with vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) can reorganize sensory or motor cortex. Repeatedly pairing a tone with a brief period of VNS increases the proportion of primary auditory cortex (A1) responding to the frequency of the paired tone. However, the relationsh...
