Edward Charles Holmes FRS FAA[5] (born 1965, UK)[1] is an evolutionary biologist and virologist, and since 2012 an National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) Australia Fellow and professor at the University of Sydney.[4][6][7]

Education[edit]

Holmes was educated at University College London where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in Anthropology in 1986.[1] He then moved to the University of Cambridge where he was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Zoology in 1990[8][1] for research on molecular evolution in primates supervised by Adrian Friday.[1]

Research and career[edit]

Holmes has used genomic and phylogenetic approaches to reveal the major mechanisms of virus evolution and determined the genetic and epidemiological processes that explain how viruses jump species boundaries and spread in new hosts.[5] His work has revealed the origin, evolution and molecular epidemiology of important human pathogens including Hepatitis C,[9][10] influenza,[11][12] HIV[13] and dengue,[14] and enabled more accurate assessments of what types of virus are most likely to emerge in human populations and whether they will evolve human-to-human transmission.[5] His recent research has provided fundamental insights into the breadth and biodiversity of the viral world.[5]

Holmes wrote The Evolution and Emergence of RNA Viruses[15] part of the Oxford Series in Ecology and Evolution edited by Paul H. Harvey and Robert M. May. He also co-authored the textbook Molecular Evolution: A Phylogenetic Approach with Rod Page.[2] Since 1994 he has supervised 26 doctoral students[1] including Marcus Gilbert,[16] Christopher Woelk,[17] Polly Walker,[18] Charles Edwards,[19] Sally Twiddy,[20] Patricia Davis,[21] Michael Worobey,[22] Gareth Jenkins,[23] María Álvarez,[24] Andrew Jackson,[25] and Angela Brueggemann.[26]

His research has been funded by the Royal Society,[5] the UK Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), Canadian Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), Rhodes Trust, Wellcome Trust, United States National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Science Foundation (NSF) and Australian National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC).[1][3]

Before moving to Sydney in 2012, Holmes held academic appointments at various Universities in the UK and USA including:

1990–1991 University of California, Davis[1], postdoctoral researcher supervised by Charles H. Langley.
1991–1993 University of Edinburgh[1], postdoc funded by the UK Medical Research Council (MRC).[1][9]
1993–2004 University of Oxford[1] where he was a Fellow of New College, Oxford and St Catherine's College, Oxford
2005–2012 Pennsylvania State University, Full Professor of Biology[1]

Awards and honours[edit]

Holmes was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science (FAA) in 2015 and a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2017.[5] He was awarded the Scientific Medal, Zoological Society of London in 2003.[1]

Personal life[edit]

Holmes lists his recreations as Whale Beach, New South Wales, electric guitars and Aston Villa Football Club.[27]
