Clinically Proven Treatment for Patients with Panic Disorder
The Freespira Breathing System addresses an important
physiological component for your patients with Panic Disorder.
The System trains patients to stabilize their respiratory pattern
and normalize their exhaled CO2 level. This changes the
body’s chemistry over time and reduces or eliminates the
symptoms of Panic Disorder, including panic attacks.

AAPB 47th Annual Scientific Meeting Preliminary Program
2016
The Association for Applied Psychophysiology & Biofeedback (AAPB), the pioneering professional society devoted to education
and research in this field, will be hosting its 47th Annual Scientific Meeting in Seattle, Washington on March 9-12, 2016 at the
Marriott Waterfront. Please save the dates and make sure to attend the entire meeting. You won't want to miss the opportunity to
attend practical workshops, learn from leading clinicians and researchers and check out the latest equipment.
The goal of this conference is to bring clinicians, physicians, researchers and professionals
involved with biofeedback and applied psychopysiology together to exchange information,
ideas, scientific data and to share experiences. Biofeedback is a process that enables an
individual to learn how to change physiological activity for the purposes of improving health
and performance. Precise instruments measure physiological activity such as brainwaves,
heart function, breathing, muscle activity and skin temperature. These instruments rapidly
and accurately "feed back" information to the user. The presentation of this information —
often in conjunction with changes in thinking, emotions and behavior — supports desired
physiological changes. Over time, these changes can endure without continued use of an
instrument. Hot topics in biofeedback emcompass HRV, Neurofeedback, Optimal
Performance.
2016 ANNUAL SCIENTIFIC MEETING HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:


AAPB 47th Annual Scientific Meeting Preliminary Program
2016
THURSDAY, MARCH 10, 2016
5:15pm - 5:30pm
Welcome & Opening Remarks
5:30pm - 6:30pm
Keynote Address: Brain-Computer Interfaces, State of the Art and
Opportunities
Yann Renard, MS - Chief Technology Officer, Mensia Technologies
Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) are new means of communication that allows sending commands to a
computer or device directly through "thoughts", which is achieved with the detection of subjects' specific
brain activity self-modulation. To do so, the user's brain activity must be analyzed and classified in real time,
requiring cutting edge analysis of the brain signals to identify and model the features that relate to the
intended action. Those must be extracted in a robust, reliable and reproducible way. BCI research has seen
a lot of improvements in the late 10-15 years focusing not only on the neuroscience and neuromarkers
aspects, but also on the signal processing, machine learning and statistical analysis of the available signals.
The talk will start with an introduction and state of the art of BCI research. It will continue with an overview of
how mathematics and engineering improved BCI performance. It will terminate with brief opportunities
offered by BCI research for other real-time-neuroscience applications.
Yann Renard is a world expert in the real-time monitoring of brain activity. Yann joined INRIA in April 2006
as a Senior Engineer after 4 years as an engineer in Virtual Reality start-ups such as SimTeam and Ondim.
During his 5 years at Inria, he was an active participant in the OpenViBE project for Brain-Computer
Interfaces, both in a scientific as well as technical capacity. Back then, he designed the overall architecture
of the OpenViBE software, integrated partners research and released the software to the research
community. Yann is now CTO at Mensia Technologies, a French revenue generating, connected-health
start-up developing groundbreaking non-invasive solutions leveraging the power of neuromodulation for the
care of the Central Nervous System (CNS).

KEYNOTE ADDRESS: How to Make Relationships Work
Dave Penner, PhD - Clinical Director, The Gottman Institute
In this presentation, Dr. Penner draws upon four decades of break-through Gottman Institute research with
more than 3,000 couples and dispels myths about relationships. In this presentation, Dr. Penner discusses:






Relationship and divorce prediction: With a three-hour assessment, Dr. John Gottman has been able to
predict with over 90% accuracy, which couples will divorce, which couples will stay together happily,
and which couples will stay together unhappily
The importance of nurturing friendship and intimacy in one's relationship
Understanding that a positive perspective occurs when the friendship in one's relationship is strong
The importance of managing conflict constructively
The significance of creating shared meaning - building a shared sense of purpose and finding ways to
make one another's life dreams come true
The key ingredients for building trust, loyalty, and commitment and making love last a lifetime. Our
newest research reveals the dynamics of betrayal and how to safeguard (or heal) your relationship.
Dave Penner is a licensed clinical psychologist and is the Clinical Director of The Gottman Institute. He is
the author of the Educator's Manual for Teaching the Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work, which is
based on years of experience teaching John Gottman's Seven Principles book. He has trained therapists in
the Gottman Method in North America, Asia and Europe and is the co-developer of the Gottman Seven
Principles Educator Program. In his role as the Clinical Director, Dr. Penner oversees clinical aspects of
Institute, including providing consultation to Certified Gottman Therapists and clinicians in training; selecting
and training consultants for clinicians pursuing certification; training and supervising video reviewers who
certify therapists in the Gottman Method; overseeing quality control of new programs and products; training
and supervising roving therapists at couples workshops and answering clinical questions from clinicians,

Keynote Address: First EEG Results of the iSPOT Study in
Depression: EEG Alpha Asymmetry as a Gender Specific Predictor
of Treatment Outcome to Sertraline and Escitalopram
Martijn Arns, PhD, BCB,Research Institute Brainclinics, The
NeuroCare Group & Utrecht University, Dept. of Experimental
Psychology
Measures of alpha and theta electroencephalogram (EEG) activity often differentiate patients with major depressive
disorder (MDD) from normal controls, and some evidence suggests these measures relate to overall antidepressant
response. This presentation will focus on a study aimed to determine whether these measures or EEG abnormalities
(epileptiform EEG and slow alpha frequency) would distinguish MDD patients from controls, whether these measures
behave as overall and differential predictors of outcome to three antidepressants and to explore the effects of gender.
In the international Study to Predict Optimized Treatment Response in Depression (iSPOT-D), a multi-center,
international, randomized, prospective open-label trial, 1008 MDD patients were randomized to Escitalopram,
Sertraline or Venlafaxine-XR and 336 controls were assessed. Treatment response was established after eight weeks
and resting state EEG was assessed at baseline. Results and conclusions will be discussed.
Martijn Arns is director and researcher at Research Institute Brainclinics, involved with the NeuroCare group and is
affiliated with Utrecht University, department of experimental psychology. Martijn received his PhD at Utrecht University
on the topic of 'EEG-based personalized medicine for ADHD and depression' and is specialized in applying brain
imaging techniques to determine the appropriate treatment for patients with ADHD and depression (personalized
medicine or RDoC). He is specialized in the development and application of neuromodulation techniques such as
neurofeedback in the treatment of ADHD, magnetic brain stimulation (rTMS) in the treatment of depression, sleep and
chronobiological aspects of ADHD and Depression. In addition, he teaches several (internationally) accredited training
courses such as an 'rTMS in Depression' workshop and a 'Neurofeedback in ADHD' training course.

PRESIDENT'S LECTURE: Psychophysiology of Sexual Arousal and
Function: State of the Field and Future Directions
Tierney Lorenz, PhD - Research Scientist, Kinsey Institute
Increasingly, behavioral health experts are recognizing the importance of sexual wellbeing for supporting intimate relationships,
improving quality of life, and even, perhaps, improving mental and physical health. Accordingly, there is increasing interest in
psychophysiological measures of sexual function for research and clinical management of sexual health. This talk will orient
attendees to the current state of the field of sexual psychophysiology, introducing the most common methods for assessing sexual
arousal in men and women. Dr. Lorenz will outline key theoretical and practical issues faced by sexual psychophysiologists, such as
the gender differences in non-concordance between subjective and genital arousal, comparability of sexual arousal measures
across sexes, integration of measures across phases of sexual response, and suggestions for improving the potential clinical utility
of sexual psychophysiology.
Dr. Tierney Lorenz is a Research Scientist at the Kinsey Institute at Indiana University Bloomington. Her research examines the
interaction between sex and reproduction, mental and physical health in women. She received her doctorate in Clinical Psychology
from the University of Texas at Austin in 2013, with a thesis on the use of exercise to improve sexual side effects of
antidepressants. Dr. Lorenz's other research includes the influence of sexual activity on women's immune function, the sequelae of
childhood sexual abuse on adult survivors autonomic and endocrine function, and psychophsyiologic models of vaginal arousal. Dr.

Lorenz's clinical specialties include promoting sexual wellbeing in survivors of sexual trauma and in women with medical illness, and
treatment of reproductive mood disorders.
