Vagus nerve stimulation boosts post-stroke motor skill recovery
(University of Texas at Dallas) Researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas have demonstrated a method to accelerate motor skill recovery after a stroke by helping the brain reorganize itself more quickly. In a preclinical study, the scientists paired vagus nerve stimulation with a physical therapy task aimed at improving the function of an upper limb in rodents.
