Dr. Adam's current research explores the complex and surprising ways electrons behave when they are subject to the interplay of quantum mechanics, material imperfections, confined geometries and interactions with other electrons.

He has published almost a hundred manuscripts in prominent peer-reviewed journals including Science, Nature, Nature Physics, Science Advances, Nature Communications, the Proceedings of the National Academies of Sciences and Physical Review Letters on his research, which focuses on trying to understand the physical mechanisms at play in a variety of technologically important advanced materials including semiconductor quantum dots, magnetic nanoparticles, and graphene.
