About

Jean-Philippe Lachaux is a leading cognitive neuroscientist whose work bridges the study of human brain rhythms and the practical application of neurofeedback for well-being. His research centers on the neural dynamics of attention, consciousness, and cognitive control, particularly through the lens of electroencephalography (EEG) and intracranial recordings. Lachaux is best known for his pioneering contributions to real-time brain imaging, notably developing the concept of "Brain TV" and "Brain Ball"—interactive paradigms that allow individuals to observe and modulate their own brain activity. His 2009 chapter, "Watching Brain TV and Playing Brain Ball," has garnered over 30 citations and remains a foundational reference for neurofeedback methods. Beyond the lab, Lachaux has translated his findings into accessible tools for improving focus and reducing stress, authoring popular science books like *The Attention Revolution*. His work has profoundly impacted both clinical neuroscience and public understanding of cognitive training, with his publications collectively cited thousands of times, solidifying his reputation as a visionary in applied brain science.
