James B. Adams is a President's Professor at Arizona State University, where he directs the autism/Asperger's research program, though he originally taught chemical and materials engineering there. Adams also holds a post at the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine. He is also the president of the Autism Society of Greater Phoenix, and has received the Autism Service Award from the Greater Phoenix chapter of the Autism Society of America. He became interested in autism when his daughter was diagnosed with the disorder in 1994.[1] He has been featured on Dateline NBC,[2] and received a National Science Foundation Presidential Young Investigator Award from President George Bush. In addition to autism, Adams' research has also focused on Silicon thin-film cells.[3]
Education
Dr. Adams has a bachelor's degree from Duke University in physics (1984), as well an MS (1986) and a PhD (1987) in materials engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.[4]
Research
Adams' autism-related research has concluded that it is likely that heavy metals and other environmental factors are related to the etiology of autism, and has also concluded that chelation therapy may be an effective way to treat it.[5][6]
