Grégoire Borst

Ph.D, HDR

Full professeur, Lab Director

Paris Cité University and IUF

Gregoire Borst is a full Professor of developmental psychology and cognitive neuroscience of education at the University of Paris. He is the director of the Laboratory for the study of Child Development and Education (CNRS) at La Sorbonne and a junior member of the Institut Universitaire de France. He obtained is PhD in 2005 in Paris Sud University and was then a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University from 2006 to 2010. His work focuses on the role of cognitive and emotional control on the cognitive and socio-emotional development of children and adolescents and on learning at school and in everyday life. He has published more than 70 scientific articles and 6 books including two for children to explain the basics of the brain and the mind. He works in close collaboration with the educational community. He is a senior fellow of the International Bureau of Education (IBE - UNESCO) & a junior fellow of the Institut Universitaire de France (IUF).
