He reported with professor Ian Craft the first pregnancy in the UK in post-menopausal women using donated eggs. The results were published in The Lancet in 1987. In 2004 he was granted the first UK licence for screening a genetic form of bowel cancer, Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (FAP), with pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) from the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority. In 2005, he was also granted the first UK Licence for screening embryos for a genetic form of cancer of the eye (Retinoblastoma). He reported the first baby born in the UK following PGD for a genetic form of breast cancer (BRCA1) in 2009.
