Gough was educated at The Perse School[10] in Cambridge and the University of Bristol where he was awarded a joint honours degree in Mathematics and Physics in 1998.[9][10] He went on to complete his PhD in the Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) supervised by Cyrus Chothia on genome analysis and protein structure as a postgraduate student of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, graduating in 2001.[6]
Following his PhD, Gough completed postdoctoral research at the LMB and Stanford University, with Michael Levitt. Subsequently, he was a scientist at RIKEN in Tokyo before being appointed a member of faculty at the University of Bristol, where he has worked since 2007.[10] He has also been a visiting scientist at the Pasteur Institute in Paris and an associate professor at Tokyo Medical and Dental University.[9]
Gough's research interests are in bioinformatics, computational biology, molecular biology, genomics[3] which has led to the creation of the Superfamily database[11][12] of Hidden Markov models (HMMs) representing all proteins of known structure. His research has been published in leading peer reviewed scientific journals including Nature,[13][14] Science,[15][16] Cell,[17] Nucleic Acids Research,[18][19][20][21][22] PNAS,[23][24] the Biochemical Journal,[25] the Journal of Molecular Biology,[26][27][28] Genome Research,[29] Bioinformatics,[30] PLOS Genetics,[31] Nature Genetics[32] and the Journal of Bacteriology.[33]
Gough's research has been funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC),[34] the European Union (EU) Seventh Research Framework Programme (FP7), the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and the Royal Society of London.[9]
