Peter Ratcliffe was born in 1954 in Lancashire, and studied medicine at Cambridge University and St. Bart's, London. Having specialised in renal medicine, he then turned towards cell and molecular biology, while at the same time maintaining close links with the clinic. He is currently a practicing clinician at the John Radcliffe hospital, Oxford.
Peter holds the Nuffield Chair of Clinical Medicine and heads the Department of Medicine at the University of Oxford. He also runs the Hypoxia Biology Laboratory of the Centre for Cell and Molecular Physiology, also at Oxford.
He is a fellow of the Royal Society and of the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO). In 2007, Peter was elected a foreign honorary member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and in 2009 he was awarded the Louis-Jeantet Prize for Medicine. In 2010 he was awarded the Canada Gairdner prize "for identification of molecular mechanisms of oxygen sensing in the cell."
