Michel Beaudouin-Lafon (born 20 July 1961) is a French computer scientist working in the field of human–computer interaction. He received his PhD from the Paris-Sud 11 University (which is now Paris-Saclay University) in 1985. He is currently professor of computer science at Paris-Sud 11 University since 1992 (in the in Situ group, In Situ group's website.) and was director of LRI, the laboratory for computer science, from 2002 to 2009.

He has been working in Human-Computer Interaction for over 20 years and was elected to the ACM SIGCHI Academy in 2006. His research interestshttps://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=Michel+Beaudouin-Lafon Michel Beaudouin-Lafon in Google Scholar include fundamental aspects of interaction, engineering of interactive systems, computer-supported cooperative work and novel interaction techniques.
