The Fête de la Science is a free event, open to all, which takes place over ten days in France and overseas. It is organised by the Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation, in collaboration with many stakeholders in the French scientific and cultural landscape.
The researchers at the ENS open the doors of their laboratories to all! Come and discover their research through visits, workshops, conferences and exhibitions.
In light of the new tools for researchers to conduct and communicate their research, we organized a workshop to discuss essential elements for a researcher in 2019. Morning session speakers (Dr. Franck Ramus, Élodie Chabrol, and Judith Lenglet) will advise researchers on how to communicate their research to their peers and the general public (e.g. blogs, twitter, graphical presentation), while afternoon speakers (Dr. Guillaume Dumas, Georgia Loukatou, Sacha Altay, and Dr. Camila Scaff) will showcase crucial tools (e.g.
Several studies had already shown that children with an older sibling have poorer language performance than those without an older sibling. But a research team from the CNRS, Robert-Debré AP-HP hospital, EHESS, ENS and Inserm has just specified this result: it would only concern children with an older brother. This work was published on August 14 in the journal Psychological Science.

There is still surprisingly little agreement about what exactly joint attention is. Part of the problem is that joint attention is not a single process, but rather it includes a cluster of different cognitive skills. First, I outline a typology of joint attention levels along with corresponding levels of common knowledge. I argue that it is useful to distinguish several levels because they have different consequences in terms of what kinds of interactions they support.
