Katherine I. Driscoll

Computational physicist by training; computational biologist in practice .

I obtained my Ph.D. in theoretical condensed matter physics at Université Grenoble Alpes and have been working as a Computational Biologist at DeepLife since 2022

My Ph.D. research was carried out in the Condensed Matter Theory group at the Néel Institute in Grenoble, France. My dissertation work centered on understanding novel forms of electronic correlation arising from long-range interactions in quantum lattice models.

My studies originally began at the University of South Carolina where I majored in physics and mathematics. Before settling in Grenoble, I completed an Erasmus Mundus joint master’s degree in physics that was hosted jointly by the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon, Universiteit van Amsterdam, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and La Sapienza Università di Roma.

In my free time, I enjoy trying out new vegetarian recipes and hiking, climbing, or skiing in the mountains surrounding Grenoble.
