Enhancing Neurotherapy with Phenotypes with Jay Gunkelman, QEEG-D

$75.00

Description

Phenotypes can be a valuable tool for clinicians, helping them to predict and better understand a client’s response to therapy, neurofeedback and medication.

  • Learn how to utilize electroencephalography (EEG) phenotypes as an intermediate step between genetics and behavior.
  • Discover a distinguishing toolset beyond the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM).
  • Develop custom protocols for neurotherapy and other modalities.

In this lecture, participants will learn:

  • Identify subtypes of specific disorders to increase their ability to understand an individual’s response to therapy, and which can be applied to develop customized therapeutic solutions.
  • Learn the framework that allows for a precise classification observed EEG variances with a small number of phenotypical categories.
