He was awarded his M.D. in 1904, but gave up medical work because he was suffering from tuberculosis.

He was director of the Potato Virus Research Institute, Cambridge, 1926-1939, and was made a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1935 and an honorary fellow of Trinity Hall in 1955. In 1901 he married Nina (1877-1925), daughter of Arthur Davis, by whom he had four sons and two daughters. He married Getrude, daughter of Ernest D. Lowy, in 1926.
