Bio

I am a Research Director (tenured full research professor) at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), based in Paris. I received my PhD in psychology from the University of Leuven, Belgium, and conducted postdoctoral research at York University in Toronto and the University of California, Santa Barbara. I joined the CNRS as a researcher at the University of Toulouse and moved to the University of Paris in 2012, where I have been working ever since.

As a CNRS research professor, I am affiliated with LaPsyDE, a research team jointly supported by the CNRS and university. LaPsyDE is a large research group (about the size of a small department) with more than 20 principal investigators working on a wide range of topics, including reasoning, numerical cognition, cognitive control, language, creativity, and misinformation. Special attention is given to developmental, educational, and societal implications. I serve as team leader of the reasoning group. We are located at the Sorbonne, in the heart of Paris.
