Hopwood served as an assistant lecturer in genetics at Cambridge until he became a Lecturer in Genetics at the University of Glasgow in 1961.[6] He later became John Innes Professor of Genetics at the University of East Anglia. He is now an Emeritus Fellow in the Department of Molecular Microbiology at the John Innes Centre.[6]

Awards and honours

Hopwood was awarded the Gabor Medal in 1995 "in recognition of his pioneering and leading the growing field of the genetics of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), and for developing the programming of the pervasive process of polyketide synthesis".[7] In 2002, he co-authored the sequencing of the S. coelicolor A3(2) genome.[3] During more than forty years he has been studying the genetics and molecular biology of the model actinomycete S. coelicolor.[8]
