Short-CV

Harald T. Schupp is a professor of General and Biological Psychology at the University of Konstanz since 2004. He completed his diploma and Ph.D. in psychology at the University of Tübingen. Before joining the University of Konstanz, Dr. Schupp did his post-doc at the NIMH Center for the study of attention and emotion and was associate professor at the University of Greifswald. Dr. Schupp has been actively involved in psychophysiological and affective neuroscience research for more than 30 years and is associate editor for Affective Cognitive and Social Neuroscience. He has also a long-standing research focus on health behavior with a focus on eating and the development of mobile interventions for behavior change. He has been co-speaker for several joint projects funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the EU (DEDIPAC; SMARTACT; EATMOTIVE). As part of the Cluster of Excellence EXC 2117 "Collective Behaviour", he is principal investigator in projects on brain synchronization and decision making as well as eating and collective appetite.
