STEVEN MARCUS, PH.D.
1946 - 2022

BSF regrets to announce the passing of founding member and Director, Steve Marcus, Ph.D.

It is with deep sadness and regret that we announce the passing of BSF Board member, Steve Marcus, Ph.D. Steve was a founding member of the Society in 1978 and has served continuously on the Board of Directors, and in various other capacities since then.

Steve was the self-appointed and Board endorsed “sergeant-at arms”, and a beloved fixture at BSF conferences along with his career-long professional partner, Mike Rothburd, Ph.D. Steve and Mike were known for their intelligent and often humorous commentary that livened our BSF workshops.

We offer our condolences to Steve's wife, Rocky, his family, friends, clients, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. He will be greatly missed.

This year BSF's parent organization, The Association for Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback (AAPB) will hold its 53rd Annual Scientific Meeting in Orlando! The theme of the conference is Training the Injured Brain with Biofeedback & Neurofeedback.

Featuring keynote speakers like Steve Porges, Ph.D. (polyvagal theory), this is a rare opportunity for those of us in Florida and nearby states to attend a world-class scientific meeting close to home. The AAPB Annual Scientific Meeting features cutting edge science and clinical information for the biofeedback and neurofeedback practitioner and scientist.

We do hope you'll join your BSF friends and colleagues May 31 - June 3, 2023 at the Caribe Royale Hotel & Convention Center for this exceptional learning and networking opportunity.
