Training

After completing a DEA in Cognitive Science in Paris, specialising in the psychology of reasoning (with Dan Sperber and Guy Politzer), I trained as a work psychologist in Yves Clot’s Activity Clinics team at Cnam in Paris. I defended my PhD in 2007, focusing on preaching as a work activity from the perspective of the psychology of language.
