Norman Henry Carey (8 February 1934 – 5 November 2017) was a British scientist who helped to establish Celltech in 1980, where he was the founding director of research and development until 1992.[1][2]

Born in Newport, Wales, he attended St Julian's secondary school in Newport, before winning a scholarship at the age of 17 to read natural sciences at St Catharine's College, Cambridge.[1] He graduated from Cambridge with a BA in 1954 and with a PhD in biochemistry in 1958.[3]

He worked at George Washington University, St Thomas' Hospital, and G.D. Searle, prior to joining Celltech in 1980.[1] While at Searle in the 1970s he was a doctoral supervisor to Michael Houghton, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2020.[4]
