Vagus nerve stimulation enhances the lasting effects of learning. Mice received vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) immediately after being trained on an eye-movement learning task. Although VNS had little effect during training, stimulated mice showed better performance on subsequent days, indicating enhanced long-term learning.
