February 6-10, 1998
6th Annual Winter Conference on Brain Function/EEG, Modification
& Training.
(formerly Known as the Key West EEG Meeting), Palm
Springs, CA
The conference vision is to bring
together the field's best leaders, innovators and thinkers to share advanced, cutting edge
ideas & techniques, network,& advance the fields forward while having tropical
fun. The meeting covers neurofeedback, brain mapping, qEEG, ADD, sound/light technology
peak performance, clinical neuropsychophysiology and related economics, and consciousness.
Over 50 speakers and 25+ workshops and a great exhibit hall. . None of the speakers are
paid to present. They come because they want to hear the best experts in the world sharing
their newest findings and ideas, at the first place they are reported, and they enjoy the
quality of the questions and the dialogue. The workshops are extraordinary opportunities
to get in depth information, training or just the thinking of the masters of the
neurotechnology/science universe. For more information, please visit Futurehealth's website.
