David Bainbridge studied zoologyand veterinary medicine at Cambridge, before spending a year in private mixed veterinary practice. He has undertaken frequent veterinary work ever since. After leaving practice, he studied for a PhD at the Zoological Society of London’s Institute of Zoology at Regent’s Park Zoo, followed by post-doctoral work at the Oxford University Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Actually he is an University Clinical Veterinary Anatomist in Cambridge University. He is a member of the Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience and he's also responsible for organising and teaching many of the pre-clinical veterinary courses at the university.

He writes popular science books, usually about biology because his aim is to write books that can explain to anyone how we work.

"I love a blank page and the opportunities it gives. A chance to weave words into a narrative of what we know and why we know it. I like to base my books on questions which non-specialists ask me – no one asks more interesting questions. And most of all, I like to tell stories." Bainbridge.
