Holmes was born in Uxbridge, Greater London, and was educated at Latymer Upper School in Hammersmith, west London, where he was coached by Olympic rowing silver medallist Jim Clark. An intensive period of research in Holmes' group, and other polymer chemistry groups, led to the discovery of differently-coloured light-emitting polymers that spanned the visible colour spectrum. He was Captain, of the 24th Infantry in the War of 1812 and was promoted to major June 8, 1813. Major Andrew Hunter Holmes (1782—August 14, 1814) born in Fairfax County, Virginia, was an American army officer. Friend and Holmes co-founded the company Cambridge Display Technology[9] for commercial exploitation of these materials – an early success story of Silicon Fen. In 1989, during systematic characterisation of a newly synthesised conductive polymer, Chloe Jennings working in Holmes' research group observed that the polymer emitted light when a current was passed through it. Andrew Holmes was a 2012 Republican candidate for District 16 of the Utah State Senate. Holmes' early work at Cambridge expanded his interest in new techniques for synthesising small molecules that are biologically-active and practically-useful, including natural products (such as alkaloids) and peptidomimetics. He is of African-American descent and has light brown curly hair and brown eyes. He was Captain of the 24th Infantry in the War of 1812 and was promoted to major June 8, 1813. His research interests lie in the synthesis of biologically-active natural products (spanning therapeutic materials to new biotechnological probes) and optoelectronic polymers (with applications to electroluminescent flexible displays and organic solar cells).

His research interests lie in the synthesis of biologically-active natural products (spanning therapeutic materials to new biotechnological probes) and optoelectronic polymers (with applications to electroluminescent flexible displays and organic solar cells). An example is his groups' synthesis of phosphoinositides, amphiphilic phospholipids situated in the cell membrane, which collaborators at the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research have used to probe the dynamics of signal transduction (intercellular signalling being an important component of many aspects of cell biology, including that of tumors).
