Sir Andrew James McMichael, FRS FMedSci KBE (born November 1943) is an immunologist, Professor of Molecular Medicine, and previosly Director of the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine at the University of Oxford. He is particularly known for his work on T cell responses to viral infections such as influenza and HIV.

Early life and education

Andrew was born in London on the 8th of November 1943 to Sir John McMichael and Sybil McMichael.[1] He went to school at St Pauls and then to the University of Cambridge at Gonville and Caius College to study medicine (1962-1968).[2] He went on to complete a PhD at the National Institute for Medical Research supervised by 'Ita' Brigitte Askonas and Alan Williamson. His thesis, published in 1975, is entitled The clonal expression of antibody-forming cells.[3]

Career and research

After his PhD Andrew completed his postdoctoral research supervised by Hugh McDevitt at Stanford University.[4] In 1977 he returned to the UK to study the T cell response to HIV infection. His research group have created two HIV vaccines which were tested in phase I clinical trials.[5] Andrew became director of the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine in 2000, and reamined so until 2012.[6] He founded the MRC Human Immunology Unit in 1998 as Honorary Director until 2010.

Andrew has supervised over 55 DPhil students over his carrer[5], many of whom have gone on to become leading immunologists themselves:

  • Douglas F. Nixon, Professor of Microbiology, Immunology and Tropical Medicine at The George Washington University.[7][8]
  • Malegapuru Makgoba, Professor of Immunology and former Vice-Chancellor & Principal of the University of KwaZulu-Natal.[9]
  • Matilu Mwau Professor and Executive Director of the Consortium for National Health Research[10][11]
  • Paul Bowness, Professor of Experimental Rheymatology[12][13]
  • Awen Gallimore, Professor of Cancer Immunology[14][15][16]
  • Paul Klenerman, Sidney Truelove Professor of Gastroenterology[17][18][19]
  • Dan H. Barouch, Professor of Medicine and Director of the Center for Virology and Vaccine Research at Harvard Medical School[20][21]
  • Sophie Hambleton, Professor of Paediatrics & Immunology[22][23][24]
  • Suranjith Seneviratne, Professor, Director of the Centre for Mast Cell Disorders and the President of the UK-Sri Lanka Immunology Foundation.[25][26][27]
  • Ling-Pei Ho, Professor of Respiratory Immunology[28][29]

In addition Andrew supervised postdoctoral researchers, including Tomáš Hanke (Professor of Vaccine Immunology), and Sarah Rowland-Jones (Professor of Immunology).[30][31][32][33]

Awards and Honours

Personal life

In 1968 Andrew married Kathryn 'Kate' Elizabeth Cross, they have two sons and one daughter.[2] Andrew enjoys walking and skiing at his house in La Salle les Alpes, France.[2]
