Veit Stuphorn is an Associate Professor of Neuroscience at The Johns Hopkins University, affiliated with the Zanvyl Krieger Mind/Brain Institute and the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences. His research bridges systems, cognitive, and computational neuroscience, focusing on the neural basis of decision-making and self-control. His research interests lie in understanding the neurophysiological mechanisms of higher executive functions, particularly decision-making and self-control. Using neurophysiological recordings in awake primates during cognitive tasks such as the countermanding paradigm, he investigates how neurons in the frontal cortex—specifically the frontal eye field (FEF), supplementary eye field (SEF), and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)—encode signals related to action initiation, suppression, error detection, and reward evaluation. He also extends these studies to human subjects using fMRI, enabling cross-species comparisons. His work suggests that medial frontal areas like ACC and SEF form a secondary executive control system that monitors performance and adjusts behavior based on outcomes. The 15 most recent publications reflect a consistent focus on executive control, inhibitory processing, and neural correlates of decision-making. These works span primate neurophysiology, human behavioral neuroscience, and theoretical neuroeconomics, with recurring themes in performance monitoring, error signaling, and the role of frontal-basal ganglia networks in cognitive control. Key techniques include single-neuron recording, local field potential analysis, and fMRI, applied across species to validate findings. Dr. Stuphorn has not been mentioned with any scientific awards in the provided text. He advises graduate students through the Neuroscience Training Program and Psychological and Brain Sciences at Johns Hopkins. While specific grants are not listed, his research is supported by long-term investigations into executive function, suggesting sustained funding. His lab conducts parallel animal and human studies, indicating interdisciplinary collaboration and resource investment. His lab is based at the Zanvyl Krieger Mind/Brain Institute at Johns Hopkins, where he leads a research team focused on neural circuits underlying decision-making and self-control.
