I attended Bolton School before reading Natural Sciences at
Cambridge where I took the Natural Science Tripos in 1963
reading Biochemistry for Part II. After a short period in
Switzerland I joined Philip Randle's group in the newly
formed Biochemistry department at the University of
Bristol. Here I took my PhD and became a Lecturer in
Biochemistry. In 1975 I moved to Oxford where I was
appointed Lecturer in Clinical Biochemistry and Tutor in
Biochemistry for Magdalen and Worcester Colleges. I was
made Reader in Clinical Biochemistry in 1990 and retired in
2002. Since retirement I have been a guest researcher at
the Oxford Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology and
Metabolism
