"With 18 years as an MP and AM, I have worked very closely with the university and of course in the Anglesey constituency I am AM for now, I work closely with the ocean sciences depart-ment," said Mr Jones.. Former Bangor graduate Prof Herbert Wilson, an original team member on the pioneering DNA programme, was also given a fellowship. The 76-year-old, who lives in Stirling, Scotland, said: "It is a tremendous honour."
