Abdou Rachid Thiam is a Senegalese[1] biophysicist and research director at the French National Centre for Scientific Research[2] and Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris, France (UMR 8023), where he studies physical mechanisms regulating the dynamics of lipid droplets in cells and in vitro.
He was the recipient of a CNRS Bronze medal in 2020.[3]
Thiam received a Bachelor of Science from ESPCI Paris[4] before conducting his doctoral research at Pierre and Marie Curie University in Paris on the study of the stability of emulsions using microfluidics.[5] After his PhD, he moved to Yale University in 2012 under a Marie Curie fellowship to conduct postdoctoral research in the team of Nobel prize Laureate James E. Rothman,[6] before starting his research group at CNRS in 2014.[7]
