Latest Activity
Haleh Farahbod commented on Ann Avouris's blog post Who would you like to see interviewed on The NeuroNetwork?
Haleh Farahbod joined Nathan W. Schultheiss's group
Synchronization and Oscillations
This group is intended for those interested in cellular and network mechanisms and the functional significance of normal and pathological synchronization and oscillations observed in small invertebrate to large cortical neuronal networks.
Haleh Farahbod joined Dr Marcus Kaiser's group
Structure and Dynamics of Brain Connectivity Networks
This group discusses methods for generating and analyzing brain connectivity data (the "connectome") and how to simulate development and dynamics on anatomicially realistic neural networks. It can also be used to announce jobs, events, and CFP's.
Haleh Farahbod joined William H. Nesse's group
Theoretical Neuroscience
Dedicated to exploring theoretical constructs in neuroscience, using a synergy of experimental, mathematical, and computational methods.
Haleh Farahbod joined Ingo Bojak's group
Neural Masses & Mean Fields
This group focuses on modeling the activity of neural masses, rather than of individual neurons. Of particular interest are "mean field" type of methods: their mathematical analysis, numerical computation, and "real world" application.
Haleh Farahbod joined Nasir Raza Awan's group
Neurosurgery
A forum to discuss the surgical application of basic neuroscience! Here, we discuss everything related to research, academic and clinical neurosurgery.
Haleh Farahbod joined Markus A. Dahlem's group
Neurological disorders
A discussion group that focuses the common aspects, e.g. upcoming conferences, new funding schemes, journals etc.
Haleh Farahbod joined Karin Buetler's group
Neuropsychology
A group dedicated to neuropsychology/cognitive neuroscience tackling the neural underpinnings of higher cognitive functions as well as its clinical application.Image: http://www.tcneuropsychology.com/Brain_Picture.jpg See More
Haleh Farahbod joined Nathan W. Schultheiss's group
Postdocs in Neuroscience
Postdocs are at the cross-roads of education and profession, and we face unique professional and social challenges, particularly in the current academic and economic climates. This group is intended for sharing related insights strategies & comments.See More
Haleh Farahbod joined Jianxia Cui's groupart and neuroscience
This group is set for those neurosciencists who love and enjoy art. We learn science through art!

Really sorry for the delayed mail. I was in the field where net is not accessable. I am studying the food stocking behavior in fishes with hope to know more about the evolution of stocking and managent of resource. Another area of my interest is decision making . I am analysing the role of familiarity on decision malikg ( both choice and inference) using fish model system.

Adrian Roel said… - Hello Haleh, It would be great to have early detection to provide timely treatment for children at risk, this has been done in regard of learning disabilities in Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua.
A combination of a neuropsych, emotional and QEEG assessment is the first step to provide a multimodal intervention, all these problems are complex and demand a systems approach. 60% of our work is ADHD, LD, dyslexia, anxiety and depression, specially in adolescents (50% show these problems) in many of them the treatment process alleviates the anxiety and depression, just imagine; good grades, good learning abilities, better sense of worth, more self control, more attention, more intelligence less failure, better relations with parents, peers and teachers no wonder anxiety and depression disappear! In our experience up to 80% have good results.
I definitely recommend using QEEG and NF along with other treatment modalities, the results are supported by science and more importantly by our everyday experience.

- Hello Haleh, It would be great to find a genetic biomarker that correlates with response. the study is funded by us and we don't have the resources to do genetic testing. We have a lot of experience using neurofeedback 5-HTP and L-tyrosine combination for ADHD and depression in adolescents with very good results. In the past we have been using commercial supplements and the patient has to buy 3 or four bottles and ends taking 10 or more capsules or tablets.
We designed our own formula and I hope we will have it available in a few weeks.
