He has been a fellow of Churchill College since its foundation, and was President of its Senior Combination Room (SCR) until 2010.
In 1965, with Hirsch, Whelan, Pashley and Nicholson, he published the seminal text Electron Microscopy of Thin Crystals.[3] He was elected to the Royal Society in 1978 and awarded their Royal Medal in 1999. In 1992 he was awarded the Guthrie Medal and Prize. He was elected a Honorary Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1995.[4] He was head of the Cavendish Laboratory from 1989 to 1997.
