Peter J P Croucher has a diverse work experience in various scientific and research roles. Peter J P began their career as an Intern at the Agricultural Development and Advisory Service, where they conducted field trials and gained experience in entomology and plant pathology. Peter J P then worked as an Intern at the Biological Records Center, where they constructed a database for monitoring invertebrate populations.

Peter then moved on to the Department of Zoology at Aarhus University, where they worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow. Here, they conducted research on the genetics and ecology of the water-spider Argyroneta aquatica.

Peter J P then joined the Institute for Medical Informatics and Statistics at Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel (CAU) as a Staff Research Scientist. In this role, they provided genetic epidemiological services, project consultation, and analytical support to different groups within the university clinic. Peter J P also worked at the "Mucosa" laboratory of the Department of General Internal Medicine at the University Clinic, where they focused on investigating the molecular genetic mechanisms of inflammatory disorders.

Afterwards, Peter joined the University of California, Berkeley, in the College of Natural Resources as an Associate Research Specialist in the Evolutionary Genetics Laboratory. Here, they conducted research on adaptive radiation, evolution, and ecology of animals.

Lastly, Peter worked at Cardiff Oncology, initially as a Bioinformatics Scientist and later as a Senior Scientist and Principal Scientist. Peter J P led the bioinformatics team and provided support to the R&D team in the development of novel therapies for various cancers.

Overall, Peter J P Croucher has a strong background in bioinformatics, molecular diagnostics, evolutionary genetics, and statistical analysis.

Peter J P Croucher earned a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree in Applied Biology from the University of Bath, which they pursued from 1989 to 1993. Peter J P then went on to obtain a Doctor of Philosophy (D. Phil.) in Biology from the University of York, completing their studies from 1994 to 1999.
