Internal and External Factors that Contribute to the

Effectiveness of Neurofeedback Training

Friday, June 28, 2024

12:00pm Eastern time

This is a 90-minute webinar.

Instructor:  Olga Mikhailovna Bazanova, Professor, Doctor of Science, PhD

Course Description: 

This presentation will discuss the external and internal factors that can enhance the effectiveness of neurofeedback training. Some of the technical, ergonomic and especially some of the so-called intrinsic factors indicate genetic and physiological relevance which require referral to medical professionals.

In addition, the presentation will address typical errors and omissions made by neuroanalysts when providing neurofeedback training.

Finally, the effective neurofeedback training methods to improve sensorimotor integration will be detailed.

Specific Learning objectives:

Based on the content of this presentation, the participant will be able to:

• Interpret the effectiveness of neurofeedback training by assessing the level of digitalization.
• Discuss and highlight the main EEG indicators of neuronal activation and efficiency and their dependence nomic factors.
• Demonstrate the dependence of neurofeedback training on individualized approach in EEG analysis.
• Construct how to define and apply individually customized EEG frequency ranges for neurofeedback training purposes.
• Formulate how to construct a neurofeedback training protocol with control of EMG artifacts.
• Classify and exclude independent artifact components in EEG analysis.
• Differentiate the effectiveness of neurofeedback training depending on the hormonal status of women.
• Define the influence of mental and behavioral strategy used in neurofeedback training and on the neurofeedback training efficiency.

You will receive an email containing the link to join the webinar one week, one day, and the morning before the event. Please ensure that you test your access to Zoom at least two hours before the webinar begins.

Olga Mikhailovna Bazanova, Professor, Doctor of Science, PhD

Olga M. Bazanova received her higher education in physiology at Novosibirsk State University. In 1980, she defended her PhD thesis on the relationship between corticosteroid hormones and vascular reactivity to pressor substances. She devoted several years to the study of neurophysiological markers of sensorimotor integration in performing musicians. In 1998, Bazanova began research on sensorimotor integration training using EEG and EMG biofeedback to improve psychomotor and cognitive performance. Based on the results of this research, she published more than 150 papers and defended her dissertation "Variability of EEG alpha activity and sensorimotor integration" for the title of Doctor of Science. She conducted research on the dependence of the neurofeedback training effectiveness based on EEG, EMG and stabilometric indicators of sensorimotor integration as a feedback on EEG endophenotype, age, hormonal cycle of women and other external factors. She received grants from BIAL, Neuromodulation Society, Russian Humanitarian and Scientific Foundation. She is a member of editorial boards of leading Russian and international journals. Currently, Bazanova is a chief researcher at the Federal Research Center for Fundamental and Translational Medicine, Professor at the Humanitarian Center of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (University) and Associate Professor at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of Novosibirsk State University.
