SYNCHRONY: HOW THE BRAIN CODES INFORMATION SKU# AG-P-049 Futurehealth Plenary Talk by Les Fehmi Early studies on information processing in the visual system have shown that visual information is transmitted as a spatial, not a temporal, code. Information travels toward the cortex as waves of synchronous action potentials. The role of synchrony in transmission of various kinds of information will be described. The role of synchrony in coding information at the level of the nerve, and at higher levels of neural organization, is crucial for controlling attention. Learning to increase and decrease brain wave synchrony with neurofeedback provides a skill set which is crucial to attentional flexibility and well being. (Specifications: MP3, 20 mins) $7.00 (min.)

in beginning, were reluctant to do open focus or phase synchronous and did single channel
in time, found that they were getting better results with whole head synchrony training and now do that first.
