DR ADRIAN ATTARD TREVISAN TO PRESENT AT EUROPEAN NEUROCONVENTION
Neurotech’s founder, Dr Adrian Attard Trevisan, will be speaking on electroencephalogram (EEG) - driven therapies at the European NeuroConvention in London on 7 June.
Dr Attard Trevisan will deliver a keynote speech regarding real-time EEG driven therapies and how they are considered to be an easy, yet effective way forward in the world of ‘personalised stimulation’. He will also discuss the term ‘EEG slowing’ which derives from the ability to monitor and modulate slow brain wave activities, characterised by enhanced amplitudes of delta and theta waves over the other EEG frequencies and by a consistent alpha suppression. This relates to an EEG pattern found in a number of conditions including autism spectrum disorders, attention deficit disorder, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder.
The European NeuroConvention attracts visitors from leading businesses, health professions, research centres, associations and clinics as well as neuroscience experts from across the globe.
