Summary
This study tests whether a safe, non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve can improve memory in healthy older adults. Researchers will compare memory performance with and without stimulation in 150 people aged 65-80 and a younger group. They also want to see if gut health or early Alzheimer's markers affect the results.
