Well, what do we really know, and what is just hype? In this talk Prof Vaughan Macefield will talk about how he developed the approach of performing direct microelectrode recordings from the human vagus nerve.Delving into what has been learned so far and what more there is to uncover. Yoga mats will not be required.Your Speaker:Vaughan is a leading human neurophysiologist who has spent his career uncovering how our nerves keep the body running. After completing his PhD in respiratory neurophysiology, he trained in labs across Australia, Sweden and the US before holding senior research and teaching roles in Sydney, Western Sydney University and Dubai.Vaughan is internationally recognised for his pioneering work using tiny microelectrodes to record signals from single nerve fibres in awake people, a technique that has revealed how our nerves control functions like blood pressure, touch and pain. Most recently, he achieved the first-ever recordings from the human vagus nerve using ultrasound-guided microneurography.Agenda🕑: 06:30 PMDoors open and arrival🕑: 07:00 PMSpeaker starts - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/richmond/everything-you-wanted-to-know-about-the-vagus-nerve-but-were-afraid-to-ask/100001985428222259 - **Event Categories**: health-wellness, Entertainment, performances - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 27.78, max: 27.78, currency: AUD ## Event venue details - **city**: Richmond - **state**: VI - **country**: Australia - **location**: Harlow - **lat**: -37.826822 - **long**: 144.997996 - **full address**: Harlow, 447 Church Street, Richmond, Australia ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Everything you wanted to know about the vagus nerve, but were afraid to ask - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/19e45e52232b788073c8b5bd8ffcc2c03183c24d6d3e293405ed8de6ab9197b7-rimg-w1200-h675-dc5c1616-gmir.jpg?v=1774102403 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Everything you wanted to know about the vagus nerve, but were afraid to ask being held? - **A:** Everything you wanted to know about the vagus nerve, but were afraid to ask takes place on Tue, 05 May, 2026 at 06:30 pm to Tue, 05 May, 2026 at 08:30 pm at Harlow, 447 Church Street, Richmond, Australia. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Everything you wanted to know about the vagus nerve, but were afraid to ask? - **A:** Tickets for Everything you wanted to know about the vagus nerve, but were afraid to ask are priced at AUD 28 per person.
