Adam has studied aspects of the biology of aging throughout his career. His graduate work with Judy Campisi at the University of California at Berkeley and the Buck Institute focused on the regulation of inflammatory networks during cellular senescence. He then did postdoctoral work with Steven Artandi at Stanford University, where he developed high content screening methods to identify regulators of telomerase.
