The Institute For Biodigital Architecture & Genetics at the International University Of Catalonia, Barcelona, Spain (http://www.biodigitalarchitecture.com/information.html) and The MAP-MAACC-CNRS Laboratory at the ENSAPLV in Paris, France (https://www.maacc.archi.fr/spip.php?article256) would be two good places to start looking. They both have Biomimetics as part of their curriculum as specializations (UIC) and Subjects (MAP-MAACC).
