Neuromodulation is expanding beyond the brain. In July 2025, the FDA approved the SetPoint System, the first clinically proven neuromodulation treatment for rheumatoid arthritis.

The device works through a concept called neuroimmune modulation: a small implant stimulates the vagus nerve, which in turn activates the body's natural anti-inflammatory pathways. This approach leverages the direct connection between the nervous system and the immune system to reduce inflammation without traditional immunosuppressant drugs.

For the neuroregulation community, this approval represents a fascinating expansion of the field. The principle that electrical stimulation of neural pathways can produce targeted biological effects is the same foundation that underlies neurofeedback and other brain-based interventions. The applications are simply growing broader.

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are no longer science fiction. The global BCI market reached $3.21 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow to $15 billion by 2035, driven by advances in flexible neural electrode materials, edge AI processors, and expanded FDA approval pathways.

Applications have moved well beyond early research into approved clinical use for treatment-resistant depression, spinal cord injury rehabilitation, and ALS communication. Consumer neurotechnology is also expanding, with devices entering digital wellness, cognitive performance, and meditation markets.

For the neuroregulation community, this growth underscores the importance of staying current with emerging technologies. ISNR members are well-positioned to lead as these tools enter clinical practice, bringing the scientific rigor and ethical standards this rapidly evolving field needs.

Struggling with sleep? You are not alone, and your brain may hold the key to better rest.

A systematic review and meta-analysis published in Frontiers in Neuroscience examined randomized clinical trials of neurofeedback for sleep quality and insomnia. The findings were clear: neurofeedback training, particularly sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) protocols targeting the brain's sensorimotor cortex, consistently improved subjective sleep quality.

Participants reported falling asleep faster, staying asleep longer, and waking feeling more refreshed. These improvements align with the understanding that sleep difficulties often stem from dysregulated brain activity patterns that neurofeedback can help retrain.

For those seeking non-pharmacological approaches to better sleep, neurofeedback represents a promising, evidence-based option.

Can neurofeedback help people with ADHD focus better? A meta-analysis of 14 randomized controlled trials says yes.

Published in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health, this systematic review analyzed data from 718 participants and found that surface EEG neurofeedback produced a statistically significant improvement in sustained attention compared to control conditions (Hedges' g = 0.32, p < 0.01).

While neurofeedback is not a replacement for comprehensive ADHD treatment, these results add to a growing evidence base showing that training the brain to self-regulate its activity can produce measurable cognitive gains, particularly in the area of sustained attention, which is central to daily functioning in ADHD.

🌟 THURSDAY KEYNOTE SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT | ISNR 2026 🌟

As neuroscience continues to evolve, understanding the biological factors that influence neuroplasticity and learning may become increasingly important for improving neurofeedback outcomes and personalized brain-based care.

ISNR 2026 is excited to welcome Ronald J. Swatzyna, PhD, LCSW, BCB, BCN as a Thursday Keynote Speaker at the 34th Annual ISNR Conference in Las Vegas.

🧠 Keynote Presentation:
Readiness Before Rewiring: Preparing the Brain for Effective Neurofeedback

Dr. Swatzyna is a clinical neuroscientist, Director and Chief Scientist of Neurophysiology Research at the Houston Neuroscience Brain Center, and Founder of Clinical NeuroAnalytics, LLC. His work focuses on EEG, qEEG, neurofeedback, and complex neuropsychiatric conditions.

His keynote will explore how biological readiness, including factors such as neuroinflammation, physiological stress, and cellular energetics, may influence neuroplasticity and neurofeedback responsiveness, while also examining emerging approaches such as transcranial photobiomodulation (PBM) in personalized neuroregulation and brain-based care.
