Congratulations to Professor Jordan Popjordanov and colleagues who have been
awarded a Brussels COST initiative for the implementation of a European
Conserted Research Action designed "to increase knowledge of the neuronal
oscillations correlated with memory and attention as a basis for neuronal
regulation aimed at enhancing human performance and health."
This initiative arose out of a Royal Society sponsored visit to Imperial
College by Jordan and Nada in the summer of 2003, and subsequent discussions at
our Society meetings at Udine and Winterthur.
There are three working groups:
theoretical considerations (chaos synchronisation and quantum modelling)
diagnostics and EEG neurofeedback treatment, particularly for childhood
disorders
experimental studies of oscillations, event-related osciallations,
oscillatory systems and synchronisation.
Countries involved include Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, France, Germany, Italy,
Macedonia, Poland, Serbia and Montenegro, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, UK,
together with Canada, Japan, NZ, Russia, USA.
While no financial estimate was attached to the proposal, the EC have awarded
24 Million euros over 4 years, which gives an indication of the importance in
which our field is regarded.
This funding will also assist with scientific meetings, and importantly
training and certification for EEG Neurofeedback.
This is a fantastic achievement that Jordan has inspired for our field, and he
deserves our heartiest congratulations.
