We have now named the winner of the Tom Budzynski Legacy Award, co-sponsored by MindPlace, for clinical research in application of neurofeedback in elderly for prevention of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) progression to dementia/Alzheimer disease.  It has been 10 years since Tom passed away and we wanted to commemorate his legacy. It is a one time award.

The award ($500) goes  to:
