About
Andreas von Leupoldt is a leading figure in health psychology and behavioral medicine, whose research illuminates the intricate connections between the mind, the respiratory system, and pain. His work primarily explores how cognitive-affective processes, such as anxiety, attention, and learning, shape the perception of bodily signals—particularly dyspnea (breathlessness) and pain. A key contribution is his investigation of the error-related negativity (ERN), a brain marker of performance monitoring, to understand how the brain processes "bodily errors" and links them to pain avoidance behaviors. This novel approach, detailed in his 2021 paper "Pain by mistake," bridges neuroscience and clinical psychology, offering new insights into chronic pain and respiratory disorders. With a career spanning over two decades, von Leupoldt has published more than 100 peer-reviewed articles, many in top-tier journals like *Psychophysiology* and *Biological Psychology*. His work has garnered over 3,000 citations, reflecting its profound impact on understanding how psychological factors influence symptom perception and health outcomes. He is also recognized for his editorial roles and contributions to international guidelines on dyspnea assessment.
