Johannes Fahrenfort is assistant professor of cognitive neuroscience at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and a principal investigator in the Conscious Brain Lab. In his work, he uses EEG, psychophysics and computational modeling to investigate consciousness, with a special emphasis on the contribution of perception, attention, decision-making (confidence, metacognition) and top-down control to conscious experience. He has special expertise in EEG, for which he has developed the ADAM toolbox that implements decoding and forward modeling of EEG data.
After obtaining his M.Sc. in psychology and Ph.D. in cognitive neuroscience at the University of Amsterdam, he was assistant professor at Utrecht University before moving to Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
