Alan Smith grew up in southern England thinking he wanted to go into astronomy. But once at Christ's College in Cambridge, Smith realized that the required physics courses bored him. He switched his focus to biochemistry, a rapidly evolving field, and earned his bachelor's degree in 1967. He then set out to earn his PhD at the prestigious MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB).
