Frédéric Justin Collet studied in Lyon as a pupil of Raphael Lépine (1851-1919), Pierret and Antonin Poncet (1849-1913). He became interne des hôpitaux and went abroad to study otology and laryngology at the various centres of Europe, in particular Vienna, where he in 1892 worked with Adam Politzer (1835-1920), Leopold Ritter von Schrötter-Kristelli (1837-1908) and Hans Chiari (1851-1916).

With André Chantemesse (1851-1919) and Antonin Poncet Collet in 1910 founded the Bibliothèque de la Tuberculose, a collection of monographs devoted to this disease.
