The Biofeedback & Neurofeedback Community Nijmegen (BNCNijmegen) invites you to our next meeting!
Computational modelling of bio- and neurofeedback learning
hosted by Floris Klumpers
Bio- and neurofeedback learning are typically conceptualized as forms of reinforcement learning. Despite the centrality of this assumption, empirical evidence is lacking, highlighting the need for computational approaches to formally characterize how feedback learning evolves (e.g. see Lubianiker et al. 2022). This meeting will bring together early efforts to understand bio- and neurofeedback learning through computational modelling. Dongni Yan (PhD student from Maastricht University) will present her initial explorations attempting to capture learning dynamics in fMRI neurofeedback. Jonathan Posthuma (PhD student from Radboud University) will present his preliminary work aimed at characterizing learning in heart rate variability biofeedback. The presentations will be followed by an integrative discussion on the opportunities and challenges of computational approaches to feedback learning.

The meeting is free (including lunch!) and open for everyone, from students to PIs, but we would like to ask you to register if you intend to join for lunch:
