George McDonald Church was born on 28 August 1954 on MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida. He grew up in nearby Clearwater, Florida, and attended the preparatory boarding school Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, from 1968 to 1972. He then attended Duke University, obtaining a B.S. degree in zoology and chemistry in two years.
In 1973, Church began research work at Duke University with assistant professor of biochemistry Sung-Hou Kim. The following year, he started a graduate biochemistry programme at Duke on an NSF fellowship.
In 1977, Church returned to graduate work at Harvard University under Walter Gilbert, completing a Ph.D. in biochemistry and molecular biology in 1984. After graduating, Church spent six months at Biogen, where Gilbert had relocated a sizable part of his former Harvard group. He then took up a Life Sciences Research Foundation postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco, with Gail R. Martin.
In 1986, Church joined the Harvard Medical School faculty as an assistant professor. He is now the Robert Winthrop Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School and a member of the Harvard-MIT health sciences and technology faculty. He was also a founding member of the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University.
Church has served as director of the Center on Bioenergy Technology at Harvard and of the Center of Excellence in Genomic Science (CEGS) at Harvard. He co-founded Veritas Genetics and its European and Latin American subsidiary, Veritas Intercontinental. In 2017, he co-founded Nebula Genomics, a personal genomics company, and in 2021, he co-founded HLTH.network, a healthcare blockchain startup.
Church's research has focused on genomics, synthetic biology, and gene therapy. He has co-founded around 50 biotech companies, including Veritas Genetics, Warp Drive Bio, Knome, and Gen9 Bio. He helped initiate the Human Genome Project in 1984 and the Personal Genome Project in 2005. He is also known for his work on the woolly mammoth revival project and his involvement with Colossal Biosciences.
Church has received numerous awards and honours, including:
Church has authored or co-authored numerous publications, including:
