Carlos F. López (born 1975) is a Colombian-American scientist who researches network-driven biological processes using computational tools. López is currently a tenured Associate Professor of Biochemistry & Pharmacology & Biomedical Informatics & Mechanical Engineering at Vanderbilt University.
Early life and education
López was born in Bogotá, Colombia. He graduated from Colegio San Carlos, a primary and secondary private Catholic school in Bogotá.
López graduated from University of Miami with a B.Sc. in Chemistry and Biochemistry, and a B.L.A. in Liberal Arts in 1998. In 2004 he obtained a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry in 2004 under the supervision of Michael L. Klein in the University of Pennsylvania.
Career
López leads a namesake laboratory in Vanderbilt University with the goal of “developing and applying numerical, modeling, and statistical methods to understand cellular processes and their dysregulation.” He was interviewed about this lab in 2022 by Vanderbilt University where he discusses his holistic view of biological systems research.[1] He was also interviewed in 2021 by the IBM Developer High-performance computing and AI podcast to discuss his use of high-performance computing simulations of biological systems to understand and treat cancer.[2]
Under his 2019 National Science Foundation CAREER award López investigated the underpinnings for essential biochemical processes.[3]
López has published more than forty papers and has done numerous presentations in academic and scientific conferences. His work has been cited in thousands of publications.[4][5][6][7]
