Carole Knibbe

Associate Professor in Computational Biology

My name is Carole Knibbe. I am Full Professor in Computational Biology at INSA Lyon (National Institute for Applied Sciences), Lyon, France. I build mathematical and computational models of biological systems, with applications in molecular evolution, and, more recently, in lipid metabolism. I am a member of the CarMeN laboratory.

I am the head of the Biosciences department of INSA Lyon. I teach algorithmics and Python programming.
