His PhD in human genetics was earned at Johns Hopkins University.[1][2]

In 1968 he became a foundation professor of human genetics at the University of Edinburgh.[1]

Having established the European Neuromuscular Centre, he was its chief scientific advisor from 1999.[1]

He was the first president of the Royal Society of Medicine’s Section of Medical Genetics, which he established, from 2001 to 2004.[1]

He was a research fellow and subsequently an honorary fellow of Green Templeton College from 1985.[1]
