DESCRIPTION:The paper describes a recently emerged methodology of extracti
 ng functional neuromarkers from spontaneous multi-channel EEG\, event-rela
 ted de/synchronization\, and event-related potentials (ERP).  The methodol
 ogy includes methods of blind source separation for artifact correcting an
 d extracting latent (hidden) components from resting state EEG and from ev
 ent-related potentials\, methods for constructing normative and patient da
 tabases\, for comparing the extracted individual parameters with the norma
 tive data\, as well for pre-post comparison.  The high test-retest reliabi
 lity of neuromarkes\, the high level of specificity and sensitivity for de
 fining dysfunctions in ADHD\, schizophrenia\, OCD\, autism\, depression\, 
 and dementia are described.  Application of the methodology for predicting
  clinical outcome in response to pharmacological medication\, for construc
 ting protocols of neurofeedback\, tDCS (transcranial Direct Current Stimul
 ation) and TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) in clinical population 
 is presented.
