Training
Controlling movement of an object on computer screen by adjusting muscle activity.
Vagus Nerve Stimulation
Recruits the auricular branch of the vagus nerve which activates brain structures that release chemicals mediating cortical plasticity.
Sham Stimulation
Sub-threshold stimulation that does not activate neural structures.
