Chris Smith holds degrees from Birmingham University (BSc: Zoology), London University (BSc: Maths/Physics), Edinburgh University (PG Diploma: Biophysics) and Aston University (PhD: Neuroscience). His academic career has been at Aston University where he was successively Assistant Lecturer, Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, Senior Tutor (Biological Sciences), twice Sub-Dean of the Faculty of Science (1987-9; 1989-90), Dean of Faculty of Science (1990-1) and, finally, Dean of Faculty of Life and Health Sciences (1991-4). He retired from full time employment in 1996 and has since been Honorary Visiting Fellow in the Department of Vision Sciences. Chris is a Member of the British Biophysical Society; Member of the British Neuroscience Association; Fellow of the Institute of Biology; Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine; Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts; Millennium Fellow; founding Member of the International Society for the History of the Neurosciences where he was President (1998-9); Member of the British Association for the Advancement of Science (BA) where he was honorary secretary of the Anthropology/Archaeology section (1984-92) and Chair of the Birmingham Branch (2002- continuing); Member of the Council of the Institute of Biology (2001-5) and Chair of the West Midlands Branch (1999-2003); Chair of the Erasmus Darwin Bicentennial Committee (1999-2002).
