Frederic Bard's Biography

Frederic Bard, Assistant Professor, Institute for Molecular and Cell Biology

Frederic Bard studied at the Ecole Normale Superieure of Lyon in France and did his graduate work at Yale University.
During his PhD, he studied how the Src tyrosine kinase regulates the Golgi apparatus.
During his postdoctoral work at the University of California San Diego (2001-2006), he identified a collection of genes essential for Golgi organization and protein secretion, the TANGO genes.
Fred joined IMCB in Singapore in 2006 as a Principal Investigator, where he established the first RNAi screening facility in Singapore.
In 2013, he was promoted Senior principal Investigator at IMCB.
His research focuses on understanding how signaling pathways regulate the Golgi apparatus, membrane trafficking and glycosylation processes.
