Development and Learning Team

Our team is interested in cognitive development and learning mechanisms from birth to adulthood, and also in the elderly. We mainly study typical development but some of our projects concern atypical development: learning disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders and mental disorders. Two important structures of our team allow us to test specific populations: the Babylab, located on the Grenoble campus, which receives infants accompanied by their parents and the Emotional and Developmental Disorders Unit (secretariat.consultation-psychologique@univ-smb .fr), located on the Chambéry campus, which welcomes adolescents and young adults. We also have collaborations with certain units of the Grenoble Alpes University Hospital: the maternity ward for newborns and the CRTLA (Reference Center for Language and Learning Disorders) for children with learning and neurodevelopmental disorders. Finally, we collaborate with schools in the Grenoble region, through the rectorate, which allows us to study children's learning. Our research themes are grouped into three main axes.
