This workshop covers the bioelectric origins of
EEG in terms of post-synaptic potentials. It also covers basics about neuronal discharge,
synaptic transmission, and general neuroanatomy. The latter topic is reviewed with a focus
on how the non-specific, reticular activating system brings about cortical activation
(beta) and mediates the transition from rhythmic, synchronous, slow wave activity (alpha,
theta). The WS reviews basic EEG recording montages, and methods of frequency analysis and
brain mapping (QEEG). It also quickly reviews derivatives of EEG, such as Event- Related
Potentials and Spectral Perturbations, and how these may be used diagnostically. There
will finally be a critical review of the field of neurofeedback, in which treatments for
ADD,Addictions, Seizure disorders and Depression are covered. Time permitting, we will
also review the experimental biofeedback of pain-related event-related potentials and
effects on pain perception.
