Hamish was a native of Glasgow, Scotland. He earned his medical degree at Glasgow University and went on to hold several academic posts there. In 1966, after publication of his pioneering four-volume series "Mammalian Protein Metabolism," he joined the faculty at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
As a scientist, Hamish focused on protein metabolism and nutrition's role in the aging process. In 1980 he became founding director of Tufts University's Human Nutrition Research Center in Aging. He headed the Center for three years and continued to teach at Tufts until his retirement in 1991.
He was a fellow of the Royal Society

He won many prestigious awards, including the Osborne and Mendel Award, the Borden Award and the Bristol-Meyers Award for distinguished achievement in nutrition.
He died of Parkinson's disease in Glasgow at the age of 79.
Dr. Irwin H. Rosenberg, Hamish's successor at the Human Nutrition Research Center in Aging said: "As one of the most gifted writers, challenging teachers and incisive scientists of his time, Dr. Munro helped redefine the importance of nutrition in human metabolism."
