Sybille Hellebrand received her Diploma degree in Mathematics from the University of Regensburg, Germany, in 1986. In the same year she joined the Institute of Computer Design and Fault Tolerance at the University of Karlsruhe, Germany, where she received the Ph. D. degree in 1991. Then she was as a postdoctoral fellow at the TIMA/IMAG-Computer Architecture Group, Grenoble, France. From 1992 to 1997 she continued as an assistant professor at the University of Siegen, Germany. Before completing her Habilitation and changing to the Division of Computer Architecture at the University of Stuttgart, Germany, in 1997, she spent several months as a guest researcher with Mentor Graphics Corporation in Portland, Oregon, USA. In 1999 she moved to the University of Innsbruck in Austria as a full professor for Computer Science. During her time in Innsbruck she was the head of the Institute of Computer Science from 2001 to 2004. Since December 2004, Sybille Hellebrand holds a chair in Computer Engineering at the University of Paderborn, Germany, and since 2006 she is also the head of the Institute of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology.

Her main research interests include test and diagnosis of micro-electronic systems, in particular built-in test, built-in diagnosis and built-in repair for systems-on-a-chip and networks-on-a-chip, as well as design and synthesis of testable and reliable circuits and systems. She has published numerous papers in international conferences, workshops, and journals. Besides her activities in several program committees, she serves as an associate editor for IEEE Design and Test and the Journal of Electronic Testing (JETTA).
