Peter D. Karp is director of the Bioinformatics Research Group at SRI International in Menlo Park, California.[1][6] He was elected a fellow of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) in 2012 for outstanding contributions to the fields of computational biology and bioinformatics.[5] He is also a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Karp leads the development of the BioCyc database collection (which includes EcoCyc and MetaCyc), which combines genome, metabolic pathway, and regulatory information for thousands of organisms.
