Stephen G. Oliver (Steve Oliver) is a Professor in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Cambridge[3] and the director of the Cambridge Systems Biology Centre.[4]

His areas of research include functional genomics and systems biology[5][6] in the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae[7] which he has worked on since the 1970s.[8] In 1992 Oliver led the team which provided first complete sequence analysis of an entire chromosome from any organism.[9] More recently he has also been involved in the creation of a robot scientist 'Adam'.[10] and has been awarded numerous research grants by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council.[11]
