Joaquin M. Fuster (born 1930)[1] is a neuroscientist whose research has made fundamental contributions to the understanding of the neural structures underlying cognition and behavior.[2] His several books and hundreds of papers,[3] particularly on memory and the prefrontal cortex, are widely cited.

Born in Barcelona, Fuster earned an M.D. at the University of Barcelona in 1953, and in 1967 a Ph.D from the University of Granada. From 1962 until 1964 he was a visiting scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Psychiatry.[1] He is currently Professor of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at UCLA's Semel Institute for Neuroscience & Human Behavior,[3] and a resident fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences[4]

Among numerous awards,[3] Fuster has received the 2006 Patricia Goldman-Rakic Prize for Outstanding Achievement in Cognitive Research[5] and the 2000 Fyssen Foundation International Prize for research excellence.[6] In 2010 he delivered the Segerfalk Lecture, given annually by an "internationally outstanding scientist who has made major contributions within the area of Neuroscience."[7]
