Frank Krueger is a neuroscientist and psychologist. He is a professor in the School of Systems Biology at George Mason University, where he directs the SCI:FI Laboratory.[1] His research addresses the neural basis of interpersonal trust and social decision-making.[2][3]

Since 2017 Krueger has held an honorary professorship in psychology at the University of Mannheim.[4]

Research

[edit]

Krueger was a co-author of a 2007 study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that used functional magnetic resonance imaging to examine trust between partners in an economic exchange.[2] With Andreas Meyer-Lindenberg he set out a model of interpersonal trust drawing on neuroscience, psychology and economics in a 2019 review in Trends in Neurosciences.[3] In 2025 he was the first of fifteen authors of an article in Humanities and Social Sciences Communications calling for transdisciplinary research on trust in the context of artificial intelligence.[5]

He edited The Neurobiology of Trust (Cambridge University Press, 2021), a multidisciplinary volume on the neurobiological basis of trust.[6]

His earlier research included studies of charitable giving, moral cognition, religious belief and the consequences of traumatic brain injury. Work he co-authored on the neural basis of religious belief was reported in The New York Times,[7] research on charitable donation in The Economist,[8] and a study of adolescents' responses to violent media in Live Science.[9]

Editorial work and awards

[edit]

Krueger has been specialty field editor for social neuroergonomics at Frontiers in Neuroergonomics since 2020.[10] He held a Fulbright U.S. Scholar Award for 2025-2026 for research at Tamagawa University in Tokyo.[11]
