Collège de France
La mission de ce laboratoire est d'analyser les bases cérébrales des fonctions cognitives, chez l'homme normal et chez certains patients neurologiques, en développant et en exploitant les méthodes modernes de la neuro-imagerie conjointement à l'utilisation de paradigmes expérimentaux issus de la psychologie cognitive. Stanislas Dehaene est ancien élève de l'École normale supérieure et docteur en psychologie cognitive. En septembre 2005, il a été nommé professeur au Collège de France, sur la chaire nouvellement créée de Psychologie cognitive expérimentale, après avoir occupé pendant près de dix ans la fonction de directeur de recherche à l'Inserm.

Ses travaux ont été récompensés par plusieurs prix et subventions, dont le prix Louis D. de la Fondation de France (avec D. Le Bihan), le prix Jean-Louis Signoret d
