Ann Carol Kimble-Hill is an American biochemist who is a Professor of Biochemistry at the Indiana University School of Medicine. Her research considers the structure-function relationships of membrane proteins and lipids, and the role of Type 2 diabetes in disparities associated with breast cancer. She was made a Fellow of the American Chemical Society in 2023.
Kimble-Hill was an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan, where she majored in pharmaceutical engineering. Alongside basic science, Kimble-Hill was interested in public perception of science and medical research.[citation needed] She joined the National Organization for the Professional Advancement of Black Chemists and Chemical Engineers Biophysical Society. For her graduate studies, she moved to the University of Illinois Chicago, where she specialized in chemical engineering.[citation needed] She moved to Purdue for doctoral study, where she studied the biophysical mechanisms of protein recruitment to raft domains.[1][2] She worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Argonne National Laboratory and Indiana University School of Medicine.[3]
