There is nearly a century of literature, which shows that electrophysiological activity, measured by EEG sensors, differs in various experimental setups and among clinical and non-clinical populations. Often, these differentiating patterns are related in the literature to attention-related processes. However, it has often been the case that the extraction of these patterns requires multiple electrodes and long samples, and thus is too cumbersome for routine use.
Over recent years, evidence accumulates regarding the feasibility of extracting sensitive attention-related electrophysiological markers from short samples and easy to use electrophysiological headsets. Our lab mission, based on decades of research, is to advance easy-to-use markers to practical implementation and mainly for the benefit of various clinical populations.
