Abstract

Dr. Bu and his team won second place in the BCI Research Award 2019 with their project that used neurofeedback training to help people quit smoking. Chapter “BCI-based Neurofeedback Training for Quitting Smoking” of this book describes this project in detail, while this chapter presents an interview with Dr. Bu. This interview addresses non-technical issues such as how the idea for their project developed, the importance of working with people from different backgrounds, advice for people new to BCI research, recent work since the BCI Research Award, and how they plan to extend their work in the next several years.
