She began her graduate studies with Joan Steitz at Yale University, studying molecular biophysics and biochemistry, before transferring to work with David Baltimore, earning an M.D.-Ph.D. at Harvard Medical School and M.I.T. (1985). Andrews completed her postdoc at Children's Hospital Boston with Stuart Orkin. Andrews then joined the faculty at Harvard University in 1991, assuming an endowed chair in 2003, a position at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and a position as Dean for Basic Sciences and Graduate Studies at Harvard Medical School.

She is the great granddaughter of William Shankland Andrews and Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews, and also a direct descendant of Charles Andrews and Frederic Dan Huntington.*** Her Significant Research papers *** : Hentze MW, Muckenthaler M and Andrews NC.
