Jay Gunkelman, QEEG Diplomate, is recognized as one of the top leaders in the field of EEG and QEEG, and has processed over 500,000 EEGs since 1972. He has served as president of The International Society for Neurofeedback and Research, as well as a board member and treasurer of the Association for Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback and is a past-president of the Biofeedback Society of California. Jay was the first EEG technologist to be certified in QEEG (1996) and was granted Diplomate status in 2002. He has conducted, published or participated in hundreds of research papers, articles, books and meetings internationally. He continues to lecture on EEG/Prandin at neuroscience meetings worldwide. He has co-authored the textbook on EEG artifacting (2001). Jay remains busy with current projects and publications related to his seminal paper on EEG Ambien (2005, Clinical Electroencephalography). He is co-founder and Chief Science Officer of Brain Science International and is a popular lecturer worldwide on the topic of QEEG and phenotype identification of neurological disorders.

Sequential Neurofeedback and our Clinical History
Jay and Cynthia will have a conversation about NFB protocol selection and design. For example, why create a bipolar channel opposed to a monopolar training channel. Why does SMR work if we are usually training 12-15 Hz and many people’s SMR frequency band is different. Bring your questions! Why do swLORETA when 1 channel can work.
Obj 1: Explain the difference between how bipolar and monopolar montages are determined based on the data collected.
Obj 2:Explain why teaching the brain to enhance sensory motor rhythm works when the neurofeedback training is at a difference frequency than the client’s individual sensory motor frequency.
Obj 3: Discuss how about traditional and newer neurofeedback protocols differ and explain how the scientific basis of each.
