After his undergraduate degree from Cambridge, Professor Jones came to the University of Bristol to complete his PhD with Professor Max Headley investigating spinal nociceptive processing. He held a postdoctoral position with Professor Tim Bliss (co-winner of the 2016 Brain Prize) in London and went on to win a Wellcome Trust International Prize Travelling Fellowship to work at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with Professors Matthew Wilson and Susumu Tonegawa (Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, 1987).

Professor Jones returned to Bristol to establish a lab as a Research Councils UK Academic Fellow in 2006, then became a Medical Research Council Senior Research Fellow in April 2011 and a Wellcome Trust Senior Research Fellow in 2016. And he became the director of Bristol Neurosciences in 2018.
