EEG Resource Institute carries out individual brain research and applied scientific functional  research on neurofeedback. We are part of the international Brain Resource Company consortium and employ the International Brain Database. The headquarters of the Brain Resource Company are in Sydney and labs are located in London, New York, Los Angeles and Holland. The Brain Resource Company is also listed the the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX: code BRC). In Holland there are three Brain Resource Company labs in Nijmegen, Enschede and Diever, and in Germany the BRC is located in Jaderberg.

Individual Brain Research - Personalized Medicine
In order to provide individual brain research we use the International Brain Database, comprised of over 8000 healthy volunteers and many large clinical populations such as ADHD, Depression, PTSD, MCI and Alzheimers. Using this database we can make a very reliable individual profile of an individual's brain function (using measures such as QEEG, EEG, ERP, GSR, ECG, EOG and EMG and various neuropsychological tests). In order to do this reliably one needs a database with this size. Using the following link one can find an illustration of the effect of differences in normative database size: The BRC Matrix (press Save and then open and press F5). This individual brain research or diagnostic service is used for establishing a reliable treatment advice for neurofeedback therapy, diagnosis of ADHD but also for medicolegal cases' such as with whiplash injury, burnout and CTE (OPS). In the near future this technique can also be used to predict treatment outcome for different medical treatments such as anti-depressants and other psychophramacological inerventions.

Applied Scientific Research
EEG Resource Institute also carries out applied scientific neurofeedback research. A small summary of some of our current studies:

• Investigating the potential diagnosis and neurofeedback treatment of dyslexia. In this study - in collaboration with the Radboud University - we are investigating the added value of EEG and neuropsychological tests in the diagnosis of dyslexia and the potential of neurofeedback treatment for dyslexia.
• Effects of different Biofeedback training procedures on quantative Electroencephalographic parameters of healthy subjects. In this study we try to etsablish the effects of Slow Cortical Potential (SCP) training, Sensorimotor Rhythm (SMR) training and Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) training on the QEEG and the interrelations between these treatment modalities, since these have been shown to have good effects in the treatment of epilepsy.
