Fowler was educated at the [[University of Sheffield]], where he completed his undergraduate and postgraduate studies in chemistry. After postdoctoral work and early academic appointments, he re-joined the Department of Chemistry at the University of Sheffield in 2005, where he spent the second half of his career.{{cite web |title=Emeritus Professor Patrick Fowler |url=https://sheffield.ac.uk/biosciences/people/emeritus-and-honorary-academics/patrick-fowler |website=University of Sheffield |date=17 February 2023 |access-date=2025-07-24}} |

Fowler's work involves the application of mathematical methods, particularly graph theory, to problems in theoretical and [[computational chemistry]]. He has made contributions to the understanding of aromaticity, especially in polycyclic and non-benzenoid [[hydrocarbons]], and has applied symmetry and topology in elucidating the electronic properties of [[fullerenes]] and related molecules.{{cite book |last1=Fowler |first1=Patrick W. |last2=Manolopoulos |first2=D.E. |title=An Atlas of Fullerenes |year=1995 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=0198557876}} |
