Thom Sharp completed his bachelor's degree in Biochemistry at the University of Bristol, with a year spent a year working at AstraZeneca. He continued in Bristol for his PhD in bionanotechnology, which was performed under the supervision of Dek Woolfson, a protein design chemist, and Paul Verkade, an electron microscopist. Thom is currently at the University of Oxford, where he is developing DNA-templated protein arrays to increase the throughput of single-particle analysis.
