Carol MacKintosh FRSB, is a cell and developmental biologist, Professor of Molecular Signalling and Head of Postgraduate Studies, at the School of Life Sciences, University of Dundee.^[1]

Carol MacKintosh received her education at the University of Aberdeen. She went on to do her PhD at the University of Glasgow.^[1] The PhD study focused on the branch-point between the tricarboxylic acid cycle and glyoxylate bypass in Escherichia coli, and was conducted alongside Professor Hugh Nimmo at the University of Glasgow.^[1] From 2003, Carol MacKintosh has worked at the University of Dundee and is working as a Professor of Molecular Signalling and Head of Postgraduate Studies. Her recent research focus is on how insulin regulates the 14-3-3-interacting phosphoproteome, it has provided a significant understanding into the evolution of cell signalling networks, and provided a foundation and a better understanding of how signalling networks are uncontrolled in diseases such as cancer, neurological disorders, and diabetes.^[2][3]
