Education
Thomas Snaddon received his Bachelor of Science in Biomolecular and Medicinal Chemistry (Honors) in 2003 and a Masters of Philosophy in Organic Chemistry in 2004. Both degrees were earned at the University of Strathclyde, in Glasgow, Scotland. In early 2008, he was awarded a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Leeds, England, for research focused in natural product synthesis. His Ph.D. work was conducted under the mentorship of Professor Philip J. Kocienski.

Career
After receiving his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry, Snaddon continued work in the field by completing multiple postdoctoral fellowships in Europe. First, Snaddon worked with Professor Alois Fürstner at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung in Germany (2008-2010), and then shortly after worked with Professor Steven V. Ley, FRS, at the University of Cambridge, England (2010-2013) to expand his knowledge on synthetic chemistry. In August 2013 Snaddon took a position in the Department of Chemistry at Indiana University, in Bloomington, IN. Since arriving to Bloomington his research group has been focused on the design and development of new concepts in organic synthesis and catalysis.
