Stefon van Noordt

Dr. Stefon van Noordt is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at Mount Saint Vincent University. His research focuses on understanding brain-based markers of attention control and performance monitoring, particularly in developmental and individual differences contexts. He integrates behavioral, imaging, and computational tools to study neural dynamics in normative and pathological states like anxiety. His work is supported by NSERC, CIHR, and other institutions. He holds postdoctoral training from McGill University and Yale University.

Education includes a Ph.D. in Psychology (2016) from Brock University, with postdoctoral fellowships at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Yale Child Study Centre. His research emphasizes EEG analysis, autism risk prediction, and medial frontal theta oscillations.

Research interests span cognitive neuroscience, developmental psychology, and neuroimaging, with a focus on EEG methodologies and their application to autism spectrum disorder. Recent work includes studies on infant EEG connectivity, social exclusion effects, and neural responses to peer feedback.

Dr. van Noordt collaborates on projects like the EEG-IP platform for international infant data integration and has published extensively on EEG biomarkers and neurodevelopmental trajectories. He mentors students in Honours thesis projects and postdoctoral training.
