The IFEN concept he developed has enabled many therapists and trainers in Germany and Europe to be successful in the field of Neurofeedback to work.

Thomas Feiner is also very active in brain research, focusing on peak performance, meditation, and accelerated learning. At his institute, he supports neuroscientific studies and the development of advanced technologies. Neurofeedback-Protocols, together with a team of neurologists, neuropsychologists, and IT experts in the field of neuroscience. He is the author and co-author of scientific publications and regularly speaks at international conferences and congresses. His lively presentation style is considered inspiring and sparks enthusiasm for Neurofeedback, EEG neuroimaging and current medical developments.

CAPITO – an acronym for "Cognitive and Psychophysiological Test Operations" – was developed specifically for trainers, therapists, and clinicians to analyze cognitive performance and emotional states. Furthermore, it enables the assessment of information processing in the brain using event-related potentials (ERPs). Since 2017, CAPITO has been used in research projects by, among others, Dr. Estate Sokhadze (Clemson University), Prof. Chiarenza, and Dr. Carlos Zalaquett (Pennsylvania State University).
