He studied at Georgetown University, and has conducted the majority of his research at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.

He received the Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research in 1978 for his research on the opioid receptor, and is one of the most highly cited researchers in the biological and biomedical sciences, with the highest h-index in those fields for the years 1983–2002, and then from 2007–2019.
