Stefanie Enriquez Geppert is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Clinical and Developmental Neuropsychology at the University of Groningen. Her presentation will be about impaired executive functions and neurofeedback.
The scope of Stefanie’s research is the specification of neuro-cognitive processes underlying executive functions in young and older adults, and in patients with impaired executive functions (e.g. subjective executive dysfunctions, mild cognitive impairment, obesity, schizophrenia, and brain lesions). Additionally, she develops and applies neuroscientific approaches (e.g. neurofeedback) to enhance executive functions in both healthy participants and patient groups.
She teaches courses addressing topics in clinical (neuro)psychology, neurophysiological research methods, as well as in research ethics and science integrity. She is one of the three initiators regarding a large-scale collaboration to help advance neurofeedback research (CRED-nf Checklist). In a recent professional publication, the current status regarding neurofeedback as a treatment method (Enriquez-Geppert et al. et al, 2018, Tijdschrift voor Neuropsychologie).
Stefanie finished her psychology studies and her PhD in biology at the University of Münster, Germany. Afterwards she completed post-doctorates at the University of Oldenburg, Germany and the University of the Balearic Islands in Spain. She spent several research stays abroad., e.g. in Australia, the UK, Norway and Mexico. Since 2018 she is a Board Member of the Society of Applied Neuroscience (SAN) with a focus on neurofeedback. |
