DESCRIPTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

Neurofeedback stands at the cutting edge of modern intervention methods, weaving together neuroimaging, advanced technology, and an array of therapeutic and coaching strategies. Despite being a field underpinned by scientific rigor\u2014boasting over 3,000 peer-reviewed studies\u2014it’s often regarded by practitioners as having an ‘artistic’ aspect.<\/span><\/p>\n

This creativity is particularly evident in crafting qEEG-informed protocols and their implementation in a clinical context. It’s well understood among professionals that neurofeedback is not as straightforward as merely setting a threshold to “inhibit theta” and then relaxing with a cup of coffee. Instead, neurofeedback involves a complex interaction between three key elements: the trainee (encompassing both their brain and mind), the trainer, and the feedback system. The art lies in fine-tuning this triad to unlock the most effective intervention and achieve positive outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n

With nearly two decades of experience, I’ve had the privilege of both learning from leading experts around the world and directly applying this knowledge through extensive hands-on practice. My journey has encompassed analyzing over 50,000 qEEGs, conducting 10,000 neurofeedback sessions personally, and overseeing another 100,000 sessions through direct supervision. I\u2019ve had the pleasure of accompanying some afflicted by a severe neurological disorder all the way to world-class professional athletes. My approach doesn’t seek to reinvent neurofeedback; instead, it aims to distill it into its most fundamental principles, grounded in well-established scientific evidence.<\/span><\/p>\n

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Back Up the ‘Art’ with Data: Attendees will be able to describe how to develop and validate empirically-based qEEG-informed protocols, blending the artistic aspects of neurofeedback with solid scientific evidence.<\/li>\n
  2. Master the Triad for Optimal Outcomes: Attendees can define proven strategies grounded in the fundamental principles of neuroplasticity to optimize client outcomes, emphasizing the critical interaction between the trainee, the trainer, and the feedback system.<\/li>\n
  3. Promote Effective Transfer: attendees will be able to describe how to maximize the specific effects of neurofeedback while ethically enhancing the non-specific effects to ensure a comprehensive impact on client well-being.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    BIOGRAPHY<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Brendan Parsons, PhD. is a neuroscientist with a passion for performance. He has spent all 15 years of his career in scientific research and clinical practice, looking for the most efficient tools for enhancing performance across cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and physiological domains. Whether they are being applied to those with difficulties – children with developmental disorders, adults with emotional issues, or aging populations with neurodegenerative conditions – or those in high-performance domains – professional athletes, business leaders or high-stress-high-precision jobs like pilots, engineers and police\/military – the goal is one and the same: to enhance cognitive, emotional, behavioural and physiological functions. To that end, he has developed expertise in neurofeedback and biofeedback, and his Ph.D. thesis combined neurofeedback with NeuroTracker to demonstrate the potential for improving learning by hybridizing these techniques. Now based in France, he educates professionals on how to help others achieve these enhancements while still maintaining an active clinical practice and contributing to neuroscientific research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

    Vigilance and Arousal Related to ADHD<\/strong><\/h1>\r\nAndreas M\u00fcller, a renowned researcher in the field of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD),will present his groundbreaking research on \"Vigilance and Arousal Related to ADHD.\" His comprehensive work delves into the intricate relationship between an individual's state of alertness and the manifestation of ADHD symptoms.\r\nThrough meticulous data analysis and innovative research methods, Dr. Mueller has uncovered crucial insights that shed light on the challenges faced by individuals with ADHD in maintaining optimal levels of vigilance and arousal. His findings have the potential to revolutionize the understanding and treatment of this neurodevelopmental disorder.\r\nBy participating in this exceptional research opportunity, you will gain access to:\r\n
      \r\n \t
    1. Cutting-edge research methodologies and tools, using the HBimed database, employed by Dr. Mueller and his team.<\/li>\r\n \t
    2. In-depth analysis of the mechanisms underlying vigilance and arousal in ADHD.<\/li>\r\n \t
    3. Practical strategies and interventions aimed at enhancing attentional control and reducing the impact of ADHD symptoms on daily life.<\/li>\r\n \t
    4. Opportunities for collaboration with a world-class researcher and his network of experts in the field.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\nDr. Mueller, along with Prof. Juri Kropotov, has developed the HBimed database, which is the only gender and age-differentiated database available for qEEG. His research and work with ADHD are widely published, and his passion for understanding the complexities of this disorder and dedication to advancing evidence-based interventions set him apart as an exceptional researcher in the field.\r\nDon't miss this unique opportunity to be part of the latest research that can help shape our understanding of ADHD research and treatment.\r\n\r\nDiversity Statement:<\/b>\r\n\r\nThe content of the presentation respects and takes into account cultural, individual, and role-specific differences in terms of arousal and vigilance and, of course, in terms of all other content of the presentation for people with mental disorders and for all other people, as indicated in the title, program description, learning objectives, and references.<\/span>","_et_gb_content_width":"","pmpro_default_level":"","_price":"45","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"1","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false},"product_cat":[43,49],"product_tag":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nrbs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/4824"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nrbs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nrbs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nrbs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nrbs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4824"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nrbs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=4824"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nrbs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=4824"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
