Stephen David Macleod Brown FRS[1] is Director of the Medical Research Council (MRC) Mammalian Genetics Unit (MGU) in Harwell, Oxfordshire.[1][8][9][10][11]
Education
Brown was educated at the University of Cambridge where he was awarded a PhD in 1981 for research on the molecular organisation and evolution of rodent genomes[12] supervised by Gabriel Dover.[5]
Career
Prior to being appointed director of Harwell in 1998, Brown was a Professor at Imperial College London.[13]
Awards and honours
Brown was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2015. His nomination reads:
Stephen Brown is distinguished for his research in mouse genetics and genomics. He pioneered studies of repeated sequences in the mouse genome and the use of novel approaches to generate molecular maps of mouse chromosomes, work that underpinned the sequencing of the mouse genome. He has been at the forefront of new approaches in mutagenesis and phenotyping for the functional annotation of the mouse genome and the identification and characterisation of disease models. Notably, in collaboration he has utilised the mouse to study the genetics of deafness, identifying key proteins involved in auditory transduction, which has transformed our understanding in this field.[1]
Brown was also elected a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences in 2001.[2]
